XFS has one major flaw.  Deletes are so painstakingly slow compared to all 
other available, stable fs in Linux.  Especially so on large files (> 1MB).  On 
a file server with a lot of deletes happening, this would severely affect the 
performance. NTFS-3G under FUSE is way faster in this particular area.
