However, with large filesystems, you could be looking at a lengthy fsck process in the event of an unclean shutdown. Some say it can take days on really large raid arrays, but fsck's on my 0.5 terabyte ext3 FS, which has a nearly identical on disk structure as ext2, takes 8 minutes.
Probably because they used e2fsprogs lower than version 1.35 or somewhere around that. Upgrading meant huge improvements in the time needed to do fsck.
