Is there anyone out there who is happy with reiserfs?
Yes and no... Our experience has been that Reiser is faster on workstations and servers, especially when you go to delete a huge directory tree with 20,000 or more files. But in two cases where we had power failures (the customer would not take our advice and replace old batteries in their UPSs), we could not recover the Reiser filesystem and wound up doing a fresh install of the OS and a restore of data, configs, etc. We now build servers using ext3. Not that I am hoping for another power failure, but it would be interesting to see what happens (the aforementioned client has since installed new batteries...). YMMV (and probably will...)
