XFS on a Web Server?

Posted by Cliff on from the how-well-would-it-work dept.

WWYD asks: "I am going to be setting up a fresh web server for the company I work for and am looking for some advise. It will be a Redhat 7.3 / Apache / PHP standard everyday setup that will be hosting 50+ radio station sites. My question is about SGI's XFS file system. I've been running it at home and love the recovery time after the system dies. (I experiment a lot). Would XFS be a good filesystem for a web server?"

    It will rock you when random directories go missing. And your apache configuration file looks like a Makefile.
