Give XFS a chance. Don't believe the FUD.
After tinkering with Ext4 I did some research and tested other file systems on my new disk arrays. I’ve concluded that XFS, once tuned, is the best file system for my needs and it could well be the best file system for your needs too. I’m now using XFS for all my computers, including laptop and workstation, and I’ll test XFS on my netbook in due course as well.
My wiki page below explains how I arrived at that decision and how I tune XFS to get optimal, yet safe, performance that can rival Ext4 and JFS.
