Various emails about converting to reiserfs...

If the idea here is that the xruns are caused by the ext3 journaling
operations, wouldn't a simple test be to mount the ext3 partition as ext2
and prove it before doing all the work to move to reiserfs only to find out
it's something else? Or possibly change the journaling commit time to reduce
or increase the xruns?

Maybe it's too late for that. Sorry...
