I myself have NO experience with it, but I read somewhere that
sourceforge is running with it as we speak :-)  They are a big Open
Source (tm) repository wth CVS and other access, so it is presumably
pretty robust.

Anyone using ReiserFS in production work? (or advise against it?)

Has anyone run Postgres databases on ReiserFS volumes under heavy enough load and for long enough to get a sense of how stable it is? 

Anyone tried pulling the power plug under heavy load to find out if ReiserFS is less prone to volume corruption than ext2 under these circumstances?

Well, not in production yet, but on my machine running a copy of our
message switch on a reiser partition. I currently have a "stuck on
TLB" (if I remember the error correctly) but this is not reiser
specific (and a patch exists which I have to try when I get time).

Hmm, pulling plug, no, but the machine has hung up 2 or 3 times while
trying out pre versions of 2.2 Linux and has come up without any
problems.

We have just ordered 2 new servers and I am going to put reiserfs and
RAID through its paces, try pulling a disk while running, pulling the
power, etc. to get a good idea of what can go wrong and whats needed
to fix it.

I suggest you try something similar before going to production.

Sincerely,

Adrian Phillips

Not very heavy load, but for long enough time.

Less. I never had "bad" corruption with reiser. On other hand, I never had
'bad' corruption with ext2 either. ;) But theoretically, its possible with
ext2 and avoidable with reiser.
