| ReiserFS is very fast filesystem, but there's alot more to it than
just what file system you're using. You may want to consider several
things: 1) what is your hdparm set to? 2) Do you have the proper support
for your chipset compiled into the kernel? Just because it works doesn't
mean it's set up properly. 3) Is it a brand new type of controller? The
drivers for it may still be a work in progress and they may not
currently function the greatest. (SATA controllers on Nvidia chipsets
for instance) 4) There are other factors to consider in disk speed than
RPM, for example what size cache does it have and what is it's seek
time? 5) What other processes are running and what kind of load are they
putting on your hard drive.

I dont think so...
IMHO, reiserfs is slower than ext3
I use it with rezound
