[mythtv-users] Is xfs flaky or is it my drive. Fedora Core 2, XFS, Myth .16 and .17

My 2 cents:  
I used XFS for a while, but when the drive got to be 98% full (3GB
remaining), it began to really suck for thruput.  And things like
deleting a program would take *minutes* to happen (which would really
piss off a recording in progress; usually hosing the BT878 driver
enough to require a reboot).

I've sinced switched to JFS (on LVM2), and that seems better at
handling "nearly full" conditions.
