Have a look at: http://www.namesys.com/ Basically, reiserfs is a journalling file system which gives better performance (faster file access) and which comes up very quickly after a power failure. With ext2fs, if you have a blackout, you need to do e2fsck on it which sometimes takes ages. With reiserfs, the file system comes uptodate in a matter of seconds. I'm using it and am very happy with it.
