How predictable it is that every time Phoronix publishes an article talking about Reiser4, the posts talk about murder.

Considering he's far more famous (or should I say infamous) for uxoricide than his coding it's hardly a surprise and very predictable.

FWIW, I talked about anal.

Reiser4 these days also faces as much competition as ever from the likes of Btrfs, F2FS, Bcachefs, and ZFS On Linux.

Yeah. However, I heard that Reiser4 is a killer file-system.

Maybe I'm just being anal, but since this is copy/pasted from the patch:

linux-5.2.8/Documentation/filesystems/reiser4.txt

then perhaps the README should be updated to say 5.2.x and tested with up to 5.2.8.

It's about time for a MurderFS article. Was wondering when one would appear.
