I have used logging with Solaris for quite some time
and have never noticed a problem..but ext2 is
certainly very fast and I suppose that relatively speaking
ext3 does extract quite a penalty.
I would strongly recommend ext3 or some other Linux
journaling file system for your non data partitions.
I have never had corrupted files or lost file systems
after power failures under Solaris UFS+logging, but I know
that certainly does happen under ext2.

Thanks. With all those files to keep track of on the disk, I can see why
it slows it down!
