The H Open takes a look at what's coming in Linux kernel 3.2 with regards to filesystems: "A number of changes to Btrfs mean that filesystem structures will not be as prone to corruption in case of system crashes. By bundling blocks into clusters, Ext4 should be a lot faster in some scenarios. CIFS also promises speed gains."
