I've had nought but problems from ext3, and nought but easiness from ReiserFS and XFS.
Counter-point: The ReiserFS systems here have caused enough problems (corrupt files :-( )that they will go away at next upgrade; Hans Reiser is also currently really unhappy at his Debian packaging and screwing around with the licence. ext3 hasn't caused problems here apart from having to unmount to resize (IIRC... it's not a frequent operation).
Not used XFS on a real live system, but I remember someone inadvertantly converting their /usr to XFS while leaving the XFS tools on it, so take care when converting, of course...
