Looking at the archived journals though, I wonder why am I seeing so many unwritten areas? Just the last extent of this file has nearly 4 mb that were never written to. This system has never had an unexpected shutdown. Attached is the extent map.
Are those journal files suffixed with a ~. Only ~ suffixed journals represent a dirty journal file (i.e. from an unexpected shutdown).
Journals rotate for other reason too (e.g. user request, overall space requirements etc.) which might explain this wasted space?
Just a thought.
