XFS does NOT do well with unexpected shutdowns. In particular it can fill files that are open at shutdown with nulls. I personally would not use XFS unless I had dual power-supplies connected to dual UPSs. And yes, I do use XFS much of the time, but I have the above redundant power and I only use it for real data filesystems, not /, /usr, /var, etc.
If XFS needs dual power supplies and dual UPSs, what huge advantage does it have that makes it worth putting up with this?
