XFS, Btrfs, EXT4 Battle It Out On Linux 3.4

XFS on Linux 3.4 for the Intel SSD with Sandy Bridge processor also regressed for the eight thread, 64MB random write benchmark with the Threaded I/O Tester.

CompileBench also showed performance regressions for the XFS file-system with the Linux 3.4 kernel. The Btrfs and EXT4 results were not too interesting although the evolutionary EXT4 file-system continued to run well ahead of Btrfs for most workloads.
