¿ the best journalist-filesystem for a raid5 ?

[system_lists]

Hi there,

    i dont wanna create a discusion between gurus. My question is so simple 
(well .. its not simple but ...).

What do u think is the best journalist filesystem for a software raid5 of 
4*120 GB IDE UATA ?
I will use this one for big files (lots of them) and small ones (just a ftp 
but too for the users space).

For a non-specific BIG/SMALL files .... JFS? Reiser3? Reiser4? EXT3?

Thanks!

JFS seems to be a bit buggy still, we went with ext3 on LVM.
  The bug we had was that everyonce in a while, under heavy load it
would just lockup waiting on something in the JSF stack.

I've had very good luck with XFS for a long time now (over 2 years in 
production, currently 5.5TB of formatted space).

I guess that leads me to the question, does ReiserFS NOT support ACLs? I
understand that XFS does (with a patch), but the page that I got this
information from is kind of old
(http://www.linux-mag.com/2002-10/jfs_01.html - which may also assist in
helping one decide which file system to go with I suppose).

The reason I ask is because I am interested in SAMBA/CIFS applications
running Linux as a file server/PDC

Last time I played with SuSE (8.2, which is the latest) their kernel had
ACL under ReisersFS... Of course, SuSE does alot with their distro, more
than most others, so it could be an in house hack for them... I don't know
the details, just letting you know what I saw...
