My ONLY experience with ReiserFS was to "try it out" on a brand new Gentoo installed machine a few weeks ago.
Within a week the machine would not boot anymore and would not repair with the reiserfs tools. I don't shut it off improperly or anything like that, and have been doing admin work for many years on Linux.
ReiserFS? Never again. I have over 80 machines using ext3 that "just work". Why I even bothered with ReiserFS on that one machine is beyond me...
I had the same problem. Seems to be related with NFS. Whenever NFS touches reiserfs I get problems. I know other people don't get these problems... and I'm happy for them... But I seem to get them when I mix reiserfs and NFS.
All NFS exported FS's I use are XFS.
XFS is also the only FS that has a working "dump" command for active/mounted filesystems.
