I like reiserfs a lot, but I limit its total size. All the reiserfs partitions share the same cpu thread, reiserfs does not scale well.
Yes that is going to be critical on a heavily multi-user system, each user having thread sunder a ReiserFS home or having their own ReiserFS partition.
But for a single user where the SYSTEM is on BtrFS or ext4 having a single operation on a ReiserFS isn't a problem. In may case I have all my Photography there, specifically to get around the inode pre-allocation problem of ext4.
I use reiserfs on partitions where I expect many small files. I have several partitions, and you hit the single thread problem when copying between two RS partitions. For photos I use XFS, photos are relatively big, and there is no problem with inodes: if I remember correctly they are dynamic as well. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
