File-System Benchmarks On The Intel X25-E SSD

At LAME MP3 encoding, the results were quite similar between ReiserFS, JFS, XFS, EXT3, and EXT4.

The GnuPG file encryption was also handicapped by the P8600 processor with the EXT4 file-system still not having pulled through.

Turning to the Java-powered Bork File Encrypter, the differences between the file-systems became clear. JFS was actually the fastest file-system on the Intel X25-E SSD. XFS had pulled in second with Bork followed by EXT3, EXT4, and ReiserFS in last. Between the fastest file-system (JFS) and the slowest (ReiserFS) there was about a 16% difference.
