Yeah, I will try JFS again some day. Not today, but someday. XFS slow deletion is my personal pet peeve. I have been using XFS for so long, so successfully, that I am hesitant to change. Plus, I have a large number of existing installs.
Last year, I setup a JFS system on a dual-opteron. I have no idea what went wrong, but binaries wouldn't load, shit would crash, sig 11, etc, etc, etc. Finally, with now clue what was up, I reinstalled using XFS. There are a number of significant differences. I am not /blaming/ JFS, all I can say, it yet another JFS attempt went bad for me. So, XFS works, and I keep using it. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
