The sad thing is that i didn't push ext3 any harder than XFS.  Ignoring 
bugs & instabilities, ext3 still requires a stupid time-consuming fsck. 
   Yea, sure, the chances of losing data is significantly reduced, but 
if i wanted to wait an hour for my terrabyte array to fix itself, i'd go 
back to 1998.
