I can assure you that GNOME is not a "high-end MySQL installation." :)

And, as Owen said, the small performance benefits we may incur with XFS
are more than offset by its cruftiness and relative lack of attention
in most distros.

IMO, unless we're running 20+ data nodes, XFS isn't going to be worth
the potential headaches.
