In the generic use-case (I.E. a Debian system) I recommend XFS. I used to recommend ReiserFS, but XFS is simply a more mature solution. It lacks one or two of the bells & whistles of ReiserFS (E.g. tail packing) but overall it's a more solid option.
Indeed - we run XFS exclusively at The Moving Picture Company. All render farm, file servers and workstations are running XFS and it's journaling capabilities have saved us many a time.
We use ext3: last I heard XFS had a few problems. AOK now?
I'm an ext3 user too; I reckon it's probably had more testing than most of the others and I haven't seen any problems with it. XFS only recently got added to mainline 2.4 kernels, didn't it? Might give it a look next time I'm building a box I can play about with.
