Personally, I'm very fond of XFS.
Its been a while, but the last time I really looked into it, XFS had a
static memory allotment for each mount whereas EXT4 was able to shrink
the memory requirements based on the size of the mountpoints. In
theory you may not feel the difference, but if you've got a VM host
running a few hundred VMs on top - each one using XFS that will
probably add up.
