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.
