To answer the file system question: the file blobserver stores lots of files 
(each blob in a separate file) which may impose some stress on the filesystem.
But the diskpacked storage does not.

If you may delete files, use the blobpacked blobserver;
if you not, then use diskpacked, or blobpacked with diskpacked for the large 
blobs and the local blobserver for the cache.

This may or may not be configured with the high level server-config.json.
If not, then configure everything you can with the high level config, then dump 
the low-level config with "pk dumpconfig", tweak it, and then use the low level 
config.

With the low level config, the cond, overlay and union blobservers allow 
creating very complex topologies, too.
