In Mike's summary he labels JFS and XFS as 'best bang for your buck'
explaining, "While not the fastest file systems, both of them
consistently perform close to EXT2, while using minimal CPU. XFS seems
to be faster over a wider range of benchmarks, however it does use
slightly more CPU than JFS. While JFS really starts to slow down with
lots of files." As for pure speed, Mike points to Reiser4 which really
shined in the Bonnie++ benchmarks, though not quite so much in the
IOZone benchmarks. He suggests, "ReiserFS v4 will [definitely] be worth
while keeping an eye on, especially considering some of the exciting new
features it offers."
