I can't speak to your filesystem question but you might consider
getting better disks. Either a RAID system or a SSD would help your
write speed and both are pretty cheap these days.
I'm using 4x10k SCSI drives in RAID0 configuration currently, on an
Adaptec zero channel SmartRaid V controller. Filesystem is ext2.
Well except for getting 15K disks you probably won't be able to get much more improvement from just
the hardware.
According to these benchmarks
(http://fsbench.netnation.com/new_hardware/2.6.0-test9/scsi/bonnie.html) ReiserFS handles deletes
much better than ext2 (10,015/sec vs 729/sec)
