Huh? Been solid here, but granted not so much experience yet compared to HFS+

Boot times are irrelevant to me, I only boot after a dot-update of the operating system and leave my "server" on 24/7. Haven't even thought of timing that boot process

Real-time performance isn't bad either; on this PCIe 2.0 limited 2013 iTrashcan I get 1150MB/s write 1350 MB/s read (Intel p660 2TB M.2 with Sintech adapter, spec says 1800 MB/s maximum for the storage and 2000 MB/s for PCIe 2.0 x4) so at least file system is not doing anything so very bad. But I must admit testing HFS+ system for benchmarking purposes has not even come to my mind.

The point about DiskWarrior or such is also irrelevant to me, because I have backups and backups of backups. I am just that much of a nerd that I want to take time to get it right. So once in a blue moon if I had trouble with my startup disk, it would be much faster to recover from my backups anyway. I spend much much more time taking backups than recovering from them.
