>> > - use ext2; Xfs and Jfs are not yet ready for prime time, and
>> > everything else is slower than ext2 for mail handling;
>>
>> ext2 would be one of the worst choices for a mail server's filesystem.

> Not according to some tests I've seen recently. If you're
>manipulating many small files, ext2 performs consistently better than
>Reiserfs (OTOH, ext2 loses big time for large files --- but that's not
>really relevant here).
