I read a white paper on the subject a while back, may 4 months or so.
Basically it proves that EXT2 is the fastest of all the non-journalling
filesystems on linux. As for the best journalling performer, it was EXT3. The
differences of all the journalling filesystems were measurable, but not so
different that any one single filesystem was useless. The slowest of the
bunch, on average, was XFS.
Give me a while... I'll try and track donw that paper for you.
