Hello Hans,
Yesterday, I realized that my tests were not fair. So I did some
further tests trying to have the same situation for 3 different FS
(reiserfs/ext2/reiser4) and I sent the result to the list, but this
mail never reached the list. I have resent it.
As per your request, I tried to replay my dd test on my 90% full
reiser4 FS, using a 4M block size. Here are the results:

I tried to run an "iostat 10" simultaneously with dd+sync. I
attached the output. Hope this helps.
