I would avoid reiserfs as I've seen far too many cases where there has been massive data loss with it. I've used xfs extensively on SuSE systems without problems, but haven't tried it on centos as it's not supported by the base systems.
Works great using the XFS Module from CentOSPlus. We use it for the data partition of our fileserver.
I just ran the script:
#!/bin/tcsh -f @ number = 0 loop: @ number += 1 echo touch $number touch $number if ( $number < 100000 ) goto loop
on a XFS partition of a CentOS 5 x86_64 system with kmod-xfs-0.4-1.2.6.18_8.1.8.el5 and xfsprogs-2.8.20-1.el5.centos installed. The script ran smoothly and took
46.238u 224.379s 4:37.93 97.3% 0+0k 0+0io 0pf+0w
to complete; all the files are there. So 100000 files in a single directory is not a problem for XFS.
