The difference between ext2/ext3/reiserfs isn't very large. But remember
to mount them noatime.

for very high load situations ext3 requires some planning of the
filesystem journal size and location as it's journal flushing algorithm
seems to have a bit more to ask, at least in the default "ordered" mode
with a default journal size.
