- When you are using a laptop (journalling FS canes battery life)
Depends if you have a good nvram device to put the journal in (ie not PC BIOS settings area). Does anyone know which laptops do? In any case, I suspect that setting journal options appropriately for a laptop would optimise the disk writes and save battery life... but I can't find good figures for it on ext3.
