I think it's quite common here to use RaiserFS for everything but /tmp, with 
quite good performance. Some are using ext3 also. I don't think it's such a 
big issue...

Myself I use RaiserFS together with tmpfs for /tmp, seems to be working quite 
well. I do have x-runs at times, har to tell what they are related to 
though...
