As long as your archiver processes are able to keep up with the log file switches, it doesn't matter what type of filesystem they're on. If you start seeing the archiver lag behind, or worse, you system comes to a screeching halt because it can't perform a log switch, you can increase the number of archive log processes (if the disks supporting the log archive dest(s) can handle more load) or store the archive logs on faster I/O. Typically this takes the form of LUNs on a RAID 1+0 using your file system of choice. For best performance, give the archivelogs their own set of disks.
