Adam Thornton had at least once instance where reiserfs ate his data on a system under heavy load. All in all, enough to make someone running a business to worry.
Much worse: it ate a customer's data. Suffice it to say, I no longer use or recommend reiserfs--particularly since the Reiser maintainers' position when I complained was "well, you should be using the newest version." My customer didn't really want to go with a version that, you know, WASN'T SUPPORTED IN THE DISTRIBUTION. Ext3, on the other hand, wasn't all that fast, but WAS quite stable. My feelings about the stability of the filesystem are completely orthogonal to my feelings about the stability of its inventor.
