Slightly apples-to-oranges, but we discovered that using reiser with
virtualization on Intel led to huge performance losses.  With 15 UML machines
with reiser root drives, we were seeing 100% CPU load on the host while idle,
and almost unuseable performance in the guests.  Changing to ext3 w/out data
journaling (default behavior) solved this and dropped the idle host load to
about 3%.
