Yup yup yup! Latest CVS copy, and it's doing very very well. :)

I agree. Sid might be a little bit on the adventurous side for a
production server (don't look at me, I'm a crazy nut indeed).

I wasn't aware of the XFS project until Release 1.0 was announced, and
this was already using a 2.4 kernel. I was using ReiserFS with the 2.2
kernels, though, and the team of Hans was really pushing forward to get
ReiserFS into the 2.4 kernel. It got there 2.4.1, with the experimental
flag. Perhaps the XFS team will know more about why XFS didn't make it to
2.4. Maybe didn't make it to the freeze?

You can check out the tests done by the ReiserFS team. They're normally in
<http://www.namesys.com/> but now I'm noticing erratic behavior with their
server. Very untimely: I'm preparing for a talk on filesystems. Hahaha! :)

Samba 2.2.1a is on Sid but I compiled it myself to enable ACLs that use
the XFS libraries. :)

Not on mine I don't, and because of certain Windows limits you can't max
out Samba unless you do concurrent operations from multiple clients. I can
get wire speed using Samba, FTP or NFS with a Linux client, though.
Perhaps I could max my system out by enabling my second network port and
trying ifenslave? :)
