that works, i got a high system load but no load cos of pdflush.
The weird thing with kde and the overlay in aufs is, that it runns quite well 
for a moment and then suddenly pdflush becomes busy.

For example, i started fluxbox directly via startx and everything was fine for 
about 5 minutes. Then i startet kate from kde4 (which also starts some other 
kde4 programs) and pdflush becomes busy again.

Will do that later cos i don't have this system right now.

The issue is still there with ext3 but ext2 works fine.
