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)
