I have just completed an article (mostly how-to) for implementing
UFS journaling on a typical desktop PC:
http://store.itsyourftp.com/~sonic2000gr/freebsd/gjournal-desktop/article.html
It focuses on detailing an easy to follow, repeatable procedure, to
install FreeBSD on a typical PC and enable journaling on /usr and
possibly /var.
I am using this same procedure on my systems.
I welcome all feedback, please send me any comments, suggestions
and corrections.
Nice work like the other one! I won't have time till Monday, but I'd
be more then happy to review and commit this article if you can send
me the sources.
Regards,
Gábor Kövesdán

The man page for gjournal does not say what unit to use when
specifying the journal size with the -s option. Sectors? GB? Anything
else? Or is there a default (say sectors) that can be changed by
using a suffix, like -s 10G?
You are right, although it does say the default is 1Gb.
However the jsize option is only available when both data journal are
stored on the same provider, and the article does not deal with this,
as it uses separate providers for data and journal.
I could give this a try on my virtual setup and see what kind of unit
is used.
Just tested, and the size is in bytes. By the way, using the same
provider for journal and data is only possible when done on empty space
or on an unneeded filesystem (all data is erased). Maybe I should add(?)
a small howto section for this condition as well.
