Is anyone aware what are the tradeoffs of using journaling fs like
reiser/ext3/jfs/xfs/blahblah which is mounted to use synchronous IO access? I sense of
performance, i know the theory regarding sync vs async (perfect example, the scsi!;D), and
Jan managed to explain it quite well, but i've never made a full run pentest on it..

cheers
