i have a morbid fascination with XFS and a don't even know why.
@ThatCrazyDude no, it just has the special SGI flair and the extra chance to be a PITA on powerfails xD like i've said, it's morbid :D
@bonifartius why morbid? I've been using it on my laptop for the past year or so and it's noticably faster than ext4 for some things. Probably my favourite fs after zfs
@scathach how does it fare on power failure? i have seen data loss with xfs for that, but that was 15 years ago. maybe it's better now?
@bonifartius I haven't noticed any issues like that
@bonifartius does it have any real advantages over ext4 if you don't story exabyte-sized files?
