bob can answer for himself...
... but the reiserfs is organized on a b-tree and allocates only as
much
actual disk-space as it needs... so no wasted space--ie. small files residing
in large fixed-size clusters which take longer to find... ext3 is
journalled, but its slower, and it wastes space... esp on systems with
thousands of small files. typically reseirfs is typically more stable than
ext3, and it also doesn't have the long file check times associated with
ext(2) ext(3). The old ext filesystems (for general purpose) are "insane".
