I haven't used it on linux.  I did use it on an AT&T unix SVR4.2 system
and Oracle.  We had a bad drive controller card that would start
throwing interrupts, cause the whole system to grind to a halt, and
require a hard power off to regain control.  We never lost a bit of data
during the four months we were looking for the cause of the problem.  I
don't know if it was JFS or Oracle, but I am very favorably impressed
with both for mission critical systems.

I haven't used it on linux because the benchmarks show XFS having an
advantage for some of the use characteristics I have.
