To my knowledge, yes.  The various journaling filesystems differ in
which sorts of operations are slow.  For some of them, for example, bulk 
deletes of large numbers of files are particularly slow.  Unfortunately, 
I know of no centralised source of information on the subject -- and
there's been a great deal of controversy about it, particularly because
some of the filesystems' behaviour has changed as they've been developed.
