Subject: Better? XIAFS or EXT2FS?

I have been using XIAFS on my system now for about a month and am pretty
happy with it; however, I would like to get the most out of my machine.
Which is better, xiafs or ext2fs?? Which one tends to be more efficient
at keeping down fragmentation? Which one has better error recovery?
Which one seems to be the most 'stable'? Xiafs is certainly faster than
the old extfs, but I haven't been able to mess around with the ext2fs.
BTW, all my partitions (including root) are xiafs and I have had no
problems (yet -- I'm knocking on wood :))...
