I agree. Reiser does an excellent job of handling the many-files-in-one-dir problem, avoiding the need for artificial hashing schemes.
Regarding reliability, I used reiser3 now exclusively on my 2.6.2 laptop and have done every murderous thing possible to it including hard poweroffs in busy-writes and numerous attempts to get software-suspend working (got it in the end but did many horrible things to my system in the process, reiser took it all without blinking).
I understand that there were problems in the past, and I would highly recommend that solid testing be done prior to deployment on a production platform, but I really do think the solution superior to the directory hashing workaround if the option is available.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
