I tend to use ext2 though I would be interested in ext4 without a journal.
I'm actually surprised that Nokia has chosen ext3 for /home.
has anyone already performed benchmarks with ext2 vs. ext3 on home?

would be UBIFS (as for root) another option or is impossible to access
the internal flash directly as for the root fs?

the flash for root fs is supposedly faster than the 32GB flash.
Is there evidence for that? AFAIK UBIFS uses online compression,
which may cancel out the faster speed?
