Hmmm, sorry to hear that.
Have you posted this info to lkml? Even if you don't get an answer, it
is something that should be reported. Or perhaps it has already been
addressed.
At the time, I had a long discussion about it on nahant-list (see the
embarrassingly titled thread that starts here
<https://www.redhat.com/archives/nahant-list/2005-October/msg00271.html>)
with no resolution. And I brought it up again on the ext3 list in April.
At the very least, you would find out if ext3 in the upcoming CentOS 5
might be likely to handle this better.
The other issue with ext3 that will soon bite me is the 8TB limitation.
It's pretty easy to get above that these days. It's good to see that the
RHEL5 beta ups that to 16TB, but I can't say I'm not worried about running
ext3 on something that big.
