Well, being one that has been using the XFS for some months now I'd say it's a
worthy competition to the other two. (reiserfs, ext3). I wouldn't be suprised if
XFS support is included in 2.4.x after a while. It's mostly stable right now and
is only lacking some minor details IMO (quota support etc) which is being worked
on. More information can be found on http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/
