We have SELinux enabled and ReiserFS isn't an option then :-( (nor is jfs).

Our benchmark was with only one client, our build machine.  Since we don't
have too many people hitting it (~10) I'm not too worried about scaling :-)
I'll leave that benchmark to someone else.

It would have been interesting to see how the reiserFS would have performed.

Also, it is not clear whether your benchmarks are for one client or many
clients running the tests simultaneously... the scalability as more clients
stress the server may be different depending on the platform (so Windows
may initially appear to be better, but Linux may scale better. YMMV).

As always, there are lies, damm lies, and benchmarks.
