My personal opinion is that anything "up to date" (as opposed to, say,

journaling, which is why I also use ext3, but with the caveat that
ext3 is just an add-on to ext2. Performance demonstrates this.
Actually, ext3 is *not* an add-on to ext2. They use the same on-
disk structure, but the drivers share little code.
ext3 might have started life as a patched ext2 driver, though.
