I just found my registered Linux user registration so I thought this was a good opportunity to start a thread about it:

There. Now you know everything about my computer. Hack away.

Do you have much trouble with reiser?

Posted: **19 Oct 2010, 03:43**

None at all. I've never had an issue with it in all the years I've used it. Never. Another thing that's pure dynamite about Linux, IMHO (per the thread we currently have going in the "Linux News" section) - the file systems ROCK, and I don't care if you use an old or new one. I still to this day format everything I can with the old reiserfs - and that's on anything I install Linux to. Never heard a single complaint about it from anyone else that I installed for, either.

Arch has added an extra bonus to it too - if you boot 30 times without a journal check (whether you've had issues or not), it automatically runs one.

Is it fast? Or what is the benefit?

Posted: **19 Oct 2010, 03:53**

See edit above - it is fast, IMHO. ext4 *may* have beat it out for speed by now, not sure.

I like it for when/if the system crashes, and I have to do a hard reboot - it will come up and do a journal check on boot.

It's a very nice file system - this will give you the pros and cons (but I've never come across the "cons" myself).

I think it's more stable than the others - but other people may disagree.
