There are some specific uses cases where speed is desired at least an
order of magnitude more than reliability.
ext2 is less reliable due to it missing the journal
Some cases, that's an advantage.
Consider a use case where having the files is a benefit, but not having
the files only means that they are fetched over the network. Like a
caching proxy's on disk cache.
If the caching proxy looses it's disk cache, so what. It re-downloads
the files and moves on with life.
RAW /speed/ is more important in these types of limited use cases.
As such, the journal is actually a disadvantage /because/ it slows
things down somewhat.
