 I used the reiser fs mainly for music. Something about what I was doing
with the music (converting, recording, playing, etc) kept crashing the
fs. And I was not able to recover except for backups. This happened 2
times so
I finally went back to ext2 and never had another problem. Ext2 takes
quite a long time to go through a fsck on a 45GB partition let alone
a couple of them. We use sgi's xfs here at work on sgi boxes and I was
very impressed with it. It's probably the best there is. Just though I'd
like to try it out on my linux box.
