I've lost data on reiserfs, but it's been a while ago. I've been using XFS for my BackupPC pool for about 2 years now and it's performance is okay (the pool used to be reiserfs). Since I also changed hardware, I cannot compare 1:1. Perceived performance of XFS vs. reiserfs is about the same. > I say switch back to ext3. Which isn't that easy given a reasonably large BackuPC pool...
