As a more useful bit of info than anecdotes and scaremongering, here's a
decent article that covers XFS in fair detail and compares a few of its
major differences from the other journaled filesystems:
http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-fs9.html
The section on "Journaling" is especially enlightening as it both shows
why people fear data loss on XFS and also why it tends not to happen so
much in real-life usage.
Regards,
Cliff
