A reminder that Reiser4 exists and is still getting updated. Fast, stable, and most of all: atomic (only one core though). You'll need to patch your kernel[0]

A reminder that Reiser4 exists and is still getting updated. Fast, stable, and most of all: atomic (only one core though). You'll need to patch your kernel[0] and install the mkfs.resier* util[1]. Take a look at this Gentoo-forums tweaks post[2] for troubleshooting and performance tweaks. If you find reiser is lagging, your filesystem was likely built incorrectly and you'll need to run a simple fsck.reiser4 -y --fix --build-fs --build-sb on your partition and it should be fixed. I only made the switch recently because Ext4 doesn't have intelligent inode allocation and drops the ball at 1mil files.
