SubjectRe: Reiser4 needs more testers
I've run through another test on STP with the latest snapshot against
reiser4 and reiserfs for comparison. Reiser4 still seems to be lagging
behind reiserfs in our DBT-2 workload (the bigger number is better in
the metric):

metric url to test results
------ ---------------------------------
reiser4 1208 http://khack.osdl.org/stp/290774/
reiserfs 1819 http://khack.osdl.org/stp/290775/
