One problem is that fsck in ext3 is fundamentally broken on large file systems.
It takes far longer than necessary and consumes huge amounts of memory - I've
had it run out of memory while fsck ran on a TB filesystem
I'm told that this is being worked on for ext4
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4#Faster_file_system_checking), but in the
mean time, it would be good if the default file system for larger partitions
was something else. Perhaps xfs
