Mac OS X Filesystem Performance Comparison

These are the results of a series of tests I did using IOZone to determine the performance of various filesystems under Mac OS X. I tested HFS+, HFS+ w/ journaling, HFS, UFS, and Ext2 . Due to wide variation in the results, I did at least 4 runs of each configuration and then used the best score for each test.” Read the benchmarks here.
