The reiserfs will likely not get improvements, that's all. If it has 
worked for you in the past, you can just keep using it as safely as

The reasons for yast offering ext3 by default were posted here time ago by

You could also consider xfs, it's very god for large files. Even better, 
test your application with both types of filesystem, and then decide.
