I recently reinstalled my laptop to use jfs.. my experiences are purely
positive. Now, let's combine these topics. Fsck for JFS takes few
seconds even on large filesystems. This same behaviour (fsck skipped
when on battery power) is quite annoying feature, since JFS refuses to
mount as rw when the filesystem is marked as "dirty". So, I have to
login+fsck+reboot after a crash.

I'm slowly giving up with ext filesystems, could anyone tell me a good
reason why using so badly immature, slow and fscking annoying
filesystem?

My decision to move to JFS with a laptop was based on lower processor
usage (=lower battery usage) with a satisfying performance. I know, it
is not the fastest on this planet but seems to be a reasonable
compromise between resources and performance.
