Then, someone tell me if they think ext[23] hurts where IO is concerned. Can
one resize a NTFS volume? Online? With a patch and some free software, you
can with Linux. Anyone want to say Linux's block allocation algorithm is
inferior??? Have you EVER tried to defrag an NT partition after a short
period of abuse? NT can kiss my *ss.
Please don't mention find though... I'm afraid I can't defend gnu-find or
ext2 in that respect. It's a design thing. Besides, Linux has the fastest
dcache around. (?) (Not to mention noatime & nodiratime)
And remember, if you don't like ext2 for some reason, you can use ReiserFS,
even LVM if you want.

Go bench them. Detailed figures. Then its possible to have a meaningful
discussion on the matter
