Not really dangerous - the only danger is that you might have to wait
for fsck to do it's thing on an unclean shutdown (which can take hours
on a full TB scale disk, granted).
I mean dangerous in the sense that if the server goes down, there might
be data loss, but the builders using the space won't know that. This is
particularly true if nfs exports are async.
Strictly speaking, journal is about preventing the integrity of the FS
so you don't have to fsck it after an unclean shutdown, not about
preventing data loss as such. But I guess you could argue the two are
related.
Obviously, I meant protecting rather than preventing the integrity. :^)
