I've used XFS for years and had very good luck with it. And some folks I respect very much here are using JFS on critical systems. Test 'em both under your presumed workload and go with whatever gives you the warm fuzzies.
Since you're the one who started me on this mess (gee, thanks! :)) here's what XFS looks like after enabling memory interleaving and 3.0GB/Sec SATA:

210MB/Sec reads, 235MB/Sec writes. Yummy!
