So what is the problem with ext3 (except for the limitation on largest
possible filesystem size). I mean, will I have a difference in read or
write speed/performance of the two filesystems?
thanks

I've started a home system on Reiser, since that's what the default is with SuSE, and I've been *very* pleased, since my wife's (not old!) m/b looks to be failing (we won't talk about the literal lightening strike on the house, and the older UPS it was on...), but the damn thing freezes, sometimes several times a day, sometimes not for days. I can *not* get her to log off every night, and so she'll have many windows up with OO, kmail, and konqueror, and when it does freeze, the *only* way out is the hardware reset switch. She's lost almost nothing, and all the windows come back up, all documents are recovered, etc.
So, take that as a rather severe test of robustness of Reiser.
