   From reading on the list a month of two back, I think ext2/3 is the only FS 
capable of cleanly mapping out dead bits of disk (should it start to go), and 
I felt I wanted that functionality.  That and wanting the power-safety of 
journalling means I kept ext3 when I had the chance of jumping.

   My vague feeling after reading around on it was also that it's also pretty 
much the most stable.  I'll just have to be careful about when I choose to 
delete big files ...

   Doesn't setting the largefiles[4] mkfs option help matters?  I went 
largefiles, maybe I should have done largefiles4. I do see pauses when 
deleting, but haven't really suffered anything because of it (but then most of 
my recordings are ~2.5Gb).
