No redundancy? That's a lot of data to lose. :-)
As for your question, I'd use ext4. It has caught up a lot with XFS and it's THE file system supported by RHEL and Fedora.
Well, I think ext4 is pretty fast. Maybe XFS has a slight edge over it in some scenarios. ZFS on linux is still highly experimental and has received close to no testing. If you are in mood for experiments EL6.3 includes BTRFS as technology preview for 64bit machines. Give it a try and let us know how it goes.
Personally, I would use ext4 ... faster is not always better.
As Nux! initially said, ext4 is the OS that RHEL and Fedora support as their main file system. I would (and do) use that. The 6.3 kernel does support xfs and CentOS has the jfs tools in our extras directory, but I like tried and true over experimental.
