Though I haven't tried ext2/3 on my primary drives, I'm going to use it/them
on my USB drive.
I found the read performance extremely slow using reiser - so much that it is
a pain to use, and I can't wait to retire that drive for archive. I have no
issues transfering files, but reading it always takes forever.
Dunno.
