Mind you that my personal experiences with reiserfs were some years ago
but one does not continue to use stinky technology.
A busy mailserver (with maildir) with reiser3. One PSU fried itself, the
remaining one decided it can't handle the load. Replaced the PSU, got the
box up and resorted to running fsck. Ended up with half the data as
mumbojumbo in lost+found and the other half just gone. Mkreiserfs-time and
full recovery from backups. Migration to ext3 after a few weeks of
testing.
And the list goes on, with various equipment. Desktop pc's and servers.
ext3 with htree is what I support nowadays.
