You're missing JFS, along with a few others. ;)
Anyway, XFS and ReiserFS are indeed faster, but at the cost of greater CPU usage. I've also read reports where XFS caused severe data loss when the system crashes. As for ReseirFS, it recovers well from crashes but that doesn't mean to say it doesn't have its faults. There are pros and cons to every filesystem, really.
Frankly, I'd stick with Ext3 for now. With a proper backup solution, a hard drive crash is easy enough to recover from. Also, using Ext3 will make it easier for you to upgrade when Ext4 gets released.
