Heh..

Choosing the best FS is like choosing the best Linux distribution or choosing
the best women for the rest of your life, as you like.. :) 

Each FS implementation has its strengths and weaknesses. I read that article

(plug-n-pray). You know, every code has bugs and the worst of them are never
found :)
