i skimmed through the links and i thought they confirmed what i had remembered. xfs is very good on high throughput systems with big files , multiple threads for read write, high MBps and iops systems. But as we are usually on a vps with one or two core and high contention for resources, i expected ext4 to be better or at least equal. that i was not losing any benefits. i dont have any benchmarks that i can claim or show you from. so basically this is totally a guess on my part.
also thanks for egging me to reread on lvm. seems pretty impressive list of features. but i think i will refrain from using them on vps too. cause i like minimal approach and i don't need to cram any more virtual layers in there. so yes, lvm is pretty great if and when one needs it. but i am not sure all those features matter for a user using an isolated vps for simple projects.. I'm talking about me.
thanks for the tutorial and links.

Sincere Thanks to VirMach for my VPS9. Also many thanks to Shadow Hosting and cubedata for the experiences I had with their VPSs.
