Concerning JFS vs REISERFS vs XFS...

Which would one use for stability?

I realize XFS has been in use probably longer than the other two on SGI's, but in Linux it was only recently merged into the 2.4.xx kernel.

However, ReiserFS has been in the 2.4 kernel since the early 2.4.x series, JFS on the other hand is somewhere in the middle.

XFS was out there for a couple of years before it was merged. XFS was
out there before reiserfs was merged, we first released against 2.3.43
from my memory.

There is a timeline here:

XFS went a lot of places before it went into the 2.4 kernel, it has been
in 2.6 for over a year for starters.
