I've also heard it can be slower however I've never done any performance
tests on the same hardware with ext3/4 vs XFS since my partitions are so big
ext3/4 is just not an option.  With that said I've been pleased with the
performance I get and am a happy XFS user.

have you noticed anything like that? You might see slower rebalances or self
