Which file systems do you recommend for *nix operating systems ?
Mostly Linux distributions seem to default to ext2, or more recently ext3, yet when i read articles dotted around the web it seems that users recomend file sytems such as XFS or Reiser.
Personaly i've only ever used:
ext2 (Mandrake + Redhat + Slackware)
ext3 (Mandrake)
FFS (NetBSD)
So do others file systems such as XFS actually provide any real optimisations or improvements over the standardised ext2/3 ? ¿ ?
