Confirms my gut feel about the performance of the one (and probably only
ever) ext3 partition which I set up as a bit of an experiment.

So, I continue with reiser 3, but looking down the road, reiser 4 seems a long shot at this point. I suppose it's possible that ext4 could turn out well. However Btrfs from oracle looks even more interesting to me -

Chris Mason, the chief developer, used to maintain reiserfs for suse IIRC.
