I don't run a webserver or anything but if you don't want journaling,
ext2 may be good.  I don't think it has any journaling at all.  Of
course, there are a lot of file systems out there to pick from.  I use
reiserfs on all mine and it works well, even when the power fails.  It
also does fine on a Compaq Proliant 6000 server with quad 200MHz CPUs. 
It is a slow rig but I don't think the journaling takes up that much CPU
time.  It always shows 0%.

It's a thought, until a serious guru comes along.  ^_^
