My experience with ext4

After the ext4 file system has been declared stable with kernel 2.6.28, I wanted to wait for 2.6.29, so some big errors get fixed by then. Now I bought a new 1TB hard disk and migrated all my data to ext4 partitions. The pro is: Boot is one third faster than before (both ext4 and the new SATA drive instead of PATA are the "culprits"). The con: The drive is 20% full and I just wonder how I should fill it.

personally I'd fill it with an LVM partition, so you can have seperate partitions/file systens with ease. I have seperate partitions for Music, Video and then create new ones as wanted.

I'm a strange bunny, though. I like to use reiserFS, especially new that I've worked out how to do online resizing :)

My data are organised in separate partitions, that's the overall fill status.

You know, ASCII porn does not need a lot of space...and that's my fetish.

Configure LVM snapshots of your partitions every 2 hours then start branching ;-)

Especially if you aren't running a critical system I'd just wait for btrfs or just switch to it and hope that there are no (unlikely) format changes - seeing as ext4 has been considered an interim fs until there really is a suitable replacement for ext*.

Then again, if you're going to use ext anyway - there are no advantages to ext3 over ext4, so you might as well go for it. Now that ext4 has a journal-less mode, there isn't even any reason to use ext2.
