I tried to look for benchmark on the performances of various filesystems with MySQL InnoDB but couldn't find any.

My database workload is the typical web-based OLTP, about 90% read, 10% write. Random IO.

Among popular filesystems such as ext3, ext4, xfs, jfs, Reiserfs, Reiser4, etc. which one do you think is the best for MySQL?

+3  A: 

You should have a look at Lessons Learned in Building a Highly Scalable MySQL Database. They benchmarked mysql with some of these filesystems and jfs looks like a clear the winner.
