Hi,
Sorry for the late reply.
The size of namespace as it contains entries for each file/directory on
the storage nodes, is directly dependent on number of files.
Size of namespace = total number of files * size of one block in
filesystem.
so, it would be useful to create a namespace directory (say partition),
with very less block size.
