I'd upgrade to a journaling filesystem as soon as possible for reliability. Testing in our own environment has shown that PostgreSQL performs best on ext3 (yes, better than XFS, JFS or ReiserFS) with a linux 2.4.21 kernel. Be sure to mount noatime and to create the ext3 partition with the correct stripe size of your RAID array using the '-R stride=foo' option (see man mke2fs).
