I did not read any bad news for jfs in the last couple of mounth, so it should be a safe setup. I do not know its performance advantages/disadvantages, but IMHO with a modern harddisk, the differences between the journaling fs are only marginal. I would not try ext3fs. There were a lot of ext3-bugs on lkml in the same time, I never saw jfs related problems. I think, ext3 needs some additional bug-sqashing and testing before considering it for a stable environment.
