[jira] [Created] (KAFKA-3725) Update documentation with regards to XFS

Ismael Juma created KAFKA-3725:
----------------------------------

             Summary: Update documentation with regards to XFS
                 Key: KAFKA-3725
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3725
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Ismael Juma


Our documentation currently states that only Ext4 has been tried (by LinkedIn):

"Ext4 may or may not be the best filesystem for Kafka. Filesystems like XFS supposedly handle locking during fsync better. We have only tried Ext4, though."
http://kafka.apache.org/documentation.html#ext4

I think this is no longer true, so we should update the documentation.
