You currently need to have 1 journal file for each filesystem. In the
future, it will be possible to have multiple filesystems share the same
journal.
Note that you should not make the journals so large that they are a
major fraction of your RAM, as you will not gain anything by this.
A few megabytes is fine, 1024 disk blocks is the minimum.
