See later question about Blastwave working with stock Solaris 9 and 10?
I'm not doing anything terribly complicated with filesystems atm, so my
killer features are "goes real fast" and "fsck recovers a lot of usable
stuff in the event of disaster." Also "has wide support" if possible.
Just about anything non-Linux that works with "Linux filesystems"
supports ext2/3 and nothing else, or ext2/3 and maybe a couple of the
other options, like Reiser (ick).
Since ext2/3 goes real fast and recovers pretty well from errors and has
wide support, I'm content to wait until ext4 stabilizes to get more
features or more speed.
