-Every once in a while, some data overflows, and the file system seems to think that you've got around 4TB used, which is well over anyone's quota, and in fact larger than any individual file system's capacity.
-XFS, like JFS, cannot really be resized smaller. Expanding it is fine, but if you want to make the file system smaller, you have to copy the data somewhere else, and re-do the partition entirely.
So, if you're not dealing with quotas, and you don't foresee needing to shrink the partitions, then it would appear that XFS is an excellent option. I'm considering using it the partitions that will have the scratch space and storage space for a new PVR I'm building.
Anyone else?

Has any one had experiance with XFS?
Ext3 didn't show the full disk size from df. When I put XFS on there it seamed faster and I had more disk space reported in df. I havn't had any problems in the week i've been using it. Anyone else used it?
