There are people on this forum whom I respect a great deal, and who
recommend against reiserfs on s390. Nevertheless I run reiserfs on
three intelboxes 24x7, and I haven't seen filesystem corruption for 18
months.
Based on that experience I like reiserfs on x86, if you have lots and
lots of little files. I'll defer to the experts in the case of s390
with, perhaps, fewer small files and more large ones.
(So Jay... now you know exactly ONE person who recommends reiserfs for
general production use on ONE platform.)
I'm sure there are lots of people for whom it works, but _I_ see too
many reports of problems to be at all interested in using it. First time
I installed a SUSE, I did get reiserfs, and did use it briefly.
I like to chattr +a ~/.bash_history and my recollection is that that
didn't work.
