We have a single 27TB partition (35 x 1TB drives as RAID5+0 in an HP MDS600), just formatted it xfs and had no problems with it so far. It's used as scratch space so not too concerned about performance.

I have compared the performance of both XFS and Ext4. And since I use those big machines for backups, for me the write performance was very important. XFS was almost twice slower.
But lets leave XFS alone :) Ext4 is the way to go :)
