Re: what filesystem type is fastest for wwwoffle ?

Not sure if I am expert, I've tried only ext2, ext3 and reiser3. Had best 
experience with reiser3 with tail option turned on (this also saved 
considerable space, too). I didn't tried reiser4, but there isn't any reason 
why it should perform worse.
