Hmmm...

Blocksize: 4096

Journal parameters:

        Size 8193 blocks (including 1 for journal header) (first block
        18)

So my journal is only 32k? With Ext3 I used 192MB journal in data=journal
mode. Should I be using a size around that when using data=journal with
ReiserFS too? Why is the default so low?--is it because the data logging
patches don't automatically change it?

And non-standard journal sizes don't work under 2.4, right? Or are there
patches for this that are reasonably stable?
