How much use have you made of XFS Lew, and do you like it for speed?
I'm casting around for what I will replace my Reiserfs systems with and I'n not sure which to select right now.
I've used it quite a bit. It had the best general characteristics for our usage as measured by various tests. I've got one requirement that calls for writing to disk two fully saturated Gig-E channels. XFS had the best aggregate write performance spooling to two 12-disk RAID-5 arrays, giving about 260-MB/Sec per array with a CPU load average of about 0.3. This is with one computer using one 3Ware RAID controller and 24 1-TB data disks. I've got another requirement that calls for streaming video data to a 36-TB array. Once again, XFS handled the load. I've also been using it for general desktop/laptop usage (except /boot, which is EXT-2). YMMV, of course...
