ReiserFS also does particularly well here. I haven't yet tested IBM's JFS. Last time I hit VxFS hard (back in the HP-UX 20.20 days) it really didn't like huge directories, but that may have changed since then.
HP-UX 20.20? I wasn't aware that they had gone much beyond HP-UX 11.x. Did you mean HP-UX 10.20? Now that's a beast I remember, and remember loathing with a passion.
HP-UX 9 was slow, but rock-solid -- no matter how hard you beat on the damn thing, it just slowed down but never stopped. HP-UX 10.x was a real dog. HP-UX 11.x looked like it was going to shape up better, but then I got out of AOL before we had many of those systems in house.
