Package: dpkg
Version: 1.15.8.6
Severity: important

Hi!

I'm using ext4 with the default mount option and the fs was created with
the default settings from /etc/mke2fs.conf.
Since the latest upgrade, performance suffered badly.

E.g. installing vim-runtime took ~8 secs with 1.15.8.5, now it takes
~44secs.

It was suggested that I use the nodelalloc mount option for ext4.
But that not only takes away some of the benefits of ext4, it also
requires explicit configuration.

dpkg should work properly(with good performance) out-of-the-box on ext4.

Cheers,
Michael
