How about *heavy* production use?
http://ftp.sourceforge.net/ has 850GB storage, half of which is reiserfs,
half is ext2. Both filesystems have been running flawlessly for > 4 months
of production (actually longer, but wasn't reiserfs before). That server
pushes between 15Mbit and 50Mbit/sec, and pulls/syncs about 2-5Mbit/sec,
24x7.
reiserfs also powers the CVS tree filesystem for cvs-mirror.mozilla.org
(also tokyojoe.sourceforge.net), which is the one and only anonymous CVS
checkout point for mozilla. That server has run flawlessly under very
heavy load since its birth.
I don't get involved in kernel politics, but as a production filesystem,
reiserfs is ok in my book.
