PFS3 or SmartFilesystem I would say. Differences in speed are almost
neglectable between these too. (Deleting files is faster on PFS3 when
DelDir is enabled on both).

There are other small differences, for example: Salvage tool (SFSSalv)
versus Fix-In-Place tool (PFSdoctor). SFS has a real file
defragmentizer, PFS3 has not. PFS can hold upto 992 files in deldir,
SFS upto 30 files in recycled directory. PFS3 is commercial, SFS is
freeware.

I am following the history of these two filesystem almost since their
beginning.
