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.
