No offense, you could port ext3 too if you like... My company has 20s nfs servers(6 250G RAID 1 units), currently use SuSE9 w/XFS. I used ext3 on some but got long time fsck headache(Yes, I have data=3Djournal in fstab, but journal will fail under heavy load). So personally I prefer XFS. BTW, thank Craig Rodrigues, Alexander Kabaev, Russell Cattelan and all others for porting XFS to FreeBSD, it's a good news for community. We need a journal FS on FreeBSD so badly! Cai, Quanqing
