I don't need quite such large filesystems as my largest is just under 4TB, and my system will probably max out around 7TB, but I need a filesystem that is maintained (Namesys had basically abandoned reiserfs in favor of reiser4 well before Hans' current troubles started), and has good all-around performance characteristics (I have both large source trees, invloving a multitude of directories and small-ish files AND a video "library" containing very large files in my /home). I would also like to see some support for the "tail packing" of resiserfs -- It's not that important, but last I checked one saved over 100MB by the portage tree on reiserfs AND mini-benchmarks like emerge --sync and find '/usr/portage' > /dev/null actually ran faster than ext3. That said, I'm very encouraged about ext4, and will probably migrate some unimportant data over to that filesystem in near future and perform my own bonnie++ tests. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =.
