Hello:

Once I untarred the freedb database (has zillions of small files 
in a few directories only; the compressed file's size is about 
350-400 MB) onto an ext3 partiton - it took more than 24 
hours to finish the job. Then I tried the same on ReiserFS and 
it took only about 5-10 minutes to uncompress the files and 
create the directory structure.
So ReiserFS seems to be a good choice.
