It's likely to do that *without* bad memory anyways. I've never before seen such an awesome concept implemented so poorly. *every* *time* i've used reiserfs it's somehow corrupted itself. It may be a tad faster than XFS (which, mind you, I've never had corrupt), but if it's not accurate then I can't trust it. I'll take a small reduction in speed for a large increase in reliability every time.

Yes, that would be the main reason I'm running XFS.  A lot of my confidence
comes from how the XFS developers respond to bug reports on the lkml.  Hans
always seemed to try as his first tactic to convince the reporter that they
had done something wrong.
