Power outages still occur. I was under the impression ext3 was the Good Thing™ and ext4 is the future, but with all the counter-claims i got curious. If uptime is important you'll want ext3 over ext2 (not this case i guess), if data loss is important (if?) i think the journal helps... And lately disk capacity is less and less a problem, so why not ext3? Btw, how does one know how much space is the journal using?
