    Serious question: why would anyone opt for XFS these days? I remember reading about it being faster/more efficient with small files, but is that still valid?

        Rock solid may be a stretch. They still suffer from outrageous metadata bugs even to this day when used in busy file systems.

        That bug alone has been open for over a decade. Development focus of the people who understand and want to fix those things have shifted to other filesystems like ext4 and ZFS.
