yes., at least reiser4.

it also gets things done (untarring) much faster as well, at the price of occasional:

'freezes' for 1/2 to 2 seconds from time to time (completely unacceptable for audio)

during delayed tree balancing or block writing/allocation or something

also rm -rf is very slow.

for certain niche cases, its a fantastic filesystem.

unless youre creating hundreds/thousands of files a minute (eg, busy Maildir host, or VFS-backed database that dont use a monolithic file (a la git, not berk or MySQL)), i wouldnt bother..
