Same same.

XFS is supposedly much better on systems with many thousands of entries,
(read shared directories). It's I/O is very fast, and it supports Posix
ACL's. Plus it was a journalled f/s before ext3 was available.

It's on all the main server file systems.

Other then that all the rest are ext3.

Cheers,
