EXT vs XFS at 80% filled filesystem

Hi,

I have heard of XFS's performance is not good as compared to EXT3 when 
the filesystem(disk) is 80% filled with data. Is it true? I have went 
through lots of performance documents of both XFS and EXT3 but could not 
find such performance benchmarking (for 80% full filesystems).

Any numbers or pointers to other documents are appreciated.

Thanks
