Reiser4 Brought to the Linux 5.0 Kernel

I used this with my riced out gentoo desktop in 2002 on a Athlon XP 1800+ spending hours/days trying to eek out a couple percentage points of performance. why, who knows.

I did the same 2006 on a Pentium III. Bootstrapping (installing/compiling the main system) took roughly 48 hours. And ReiserFS was the FS of choice for the portage with its many small files.

What has happened to the out of tree approach? Is it followed by any other mainstream OS? (Thinking of btrfs and thelike)

I was going to ask if he isn't out by now, but no May is when he'll be eligible for parole (and IMO shouldn't get it by nature of the way he ran his defence).
