Never had to deal with such a large filesystem, yet, but I'd try XFS on it.
XFS is fairly memory intensive. 11TB file systems tend to mean millions and millions of files.
frankly, I wouldn't run this on CentOS 5.6, I would upgrade to CentOS 6.latest and then I would use XFS.... support for EXT4 and XFS is rather sketchy with the old kernel in 5.x (and why aren't you at 5.8 or whatever is current in the 5 series anyways?!?)
Oh yeah, definitely upgrade to Centos 6. Maybe even go for the elrepo kernel-ml a go, too. They usually provide the latest.
