I have been using it without problems on my system for nearly a year now, and while I have not made any serious comparisons, it has been reliable and efficient for me. It seems to use less overhead that ext2 (have not tried ext3) and the idea of maintaining filenames in a balanced tree structure makes a lot of sense to me. So how is it crap?
