I have been using Reiserfs3 on my mail server (maildir format) for 4
years, with zero problems, even after a few unclean shutdowns. Of
course, there are also plenty of horror stories, but honestly most are
based on earlier versions of reiserfs before most of the bugs were
worked out..

Anyway, that my .02 clad coins worth...
