I used reiser for a while until I discovered the main guy was a murderer as well, lol. That and it's been decreasing in performance over time, which seems suspicious, also as has been stated.
Now I don't really mind and just use ext4 on everything.
It's not really the fact that it's been decreasing in performance over time, so much as the fact that ReiserFS development has essentially been rendered static due to the fact that the primary developer is no longer able to develop it further.
In the time that Hans Reiser has been incarcerated, ext4, and BtrFS have come to the forefront, and have performance equal to, or better than ResierFS.
When ReiserFS came out in 2K1, ext3FS was still in very late beta, and XFS had only recently been GPL'ed by SGI.
