I agree with that part of what you said (which is why I've stuck with
ext3 for so long), but the rest may have been a tad harsh.

Future of these fs seems to be somehow vague, at least to me.
And I do not know if it can handle snaphosts and resizing.
Reiserfs-3 supports increasing the size but not shrinking (AFAIK).

If you use XFS, make sure you have a UPS to prevent hard power offs.
I used XFS a good while back, every time the power would fail, it was
toast.
I second this. My experience with xfs: a good chance you will end up
with empty (zero size)
It was fast and nice
Not fast on deletes. On the contrary, it was dead slow.

I've been using xfs on a 1tb WD MyBook for storage for about a year now, and
even with multiple power failures, it's been fine. It doesn't get written to
as much as read to, though, and iirc i have a cron job run sync every half
an hour.

The cron job is cheating. ROFL
