What filesystem is this?

Ext3 on Fedora Linux.

Some filesystems are notoriously slow at deleting
large files. The mythtv folk who face this problem regularly recommend either
JFS or XFS for this purpose.

That's a remarkable advice, because XFS is known to be slow at creating and deleting files, see <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XFS> and <http://everything2.com/index.pl?node_id=1479435>.
