It's nothing to do with busybox (despite the hostname). If anything a
better place for the question would be the ext3-users[1] or
linux-raid[2] mailing lists (as it's a question about optimising ext3
for use on Linux software RAID devices).

A bit of searching around will probably find a few related discussions
in the past also.

Bryn.
