Is it wise to have / on reiser4 and /home on xfs? I'm thinking about this since reiser4 has been reported to be good with handling small files (ebuilds) and XFS is supposedly good with large blocks. I'm not worried too much about stability, I was just wondering whether this would give me a significant improvement in all my emerge --syncs and anything that uses ebuilds.

Do you make regular backups?
Do you care about your data?
Do you use windo..s also?
Do you want to share your data with win..s? |

I make a backup about once every 2 months.
I don't particularly care about my data.
I don't use windows.
I don't want to share data with windows since I don't have a windows machine on my network
