XFS in Dapper

[Nick Webb]

Hello all -

I've got a project coming up that will have a file system around 2TB and 
I'm thinking of using XFS for it.  Main feature of XFS I need is the 
lack of fsck at startup (fsck for ext2/3 will take several hours with a 
2TB partition).  The file system will also likely have many large files, 
so XFS seems to be a good choice for this as well.

Can anyone share their XFS experiences on Ubuntu Dapper?  Is it as 
stable as ext3 in your experience?  Any tips/tricks/gotchas?  Any other 
file systems I should look at (JFS, ReiserFS, etc.)?

Thanks!

Nick
