I didn't see any speed increase either.  Both my FFS and SFS partitions get about ~10Mb/sec on my A4000.  I use FFS for my Sys: part because I've had trouble with corruption in the past.  But, SFS is used on all other volumes, mainly for LFN support (and the thought of validating a 20GB partition is not amusing).
Time to move on.  Bye Amiga.org.  :(

@Piru

This was merely a test using the diskspeed program and instructions included in the SFS package.  Like most benchmarks, the results don't necessarily show the full picture.  

BTW, this is on the CSMK3, which should theoretically be able of more.  (If I'm to believe other's benchmarks)

Luckily, I've never run SFSSalv on any of my large partitions.   I tried on my old SYS: but it couldn't/wouldn't fix it so I just reformatted and restarted.
