Posted to the svn list, they said that 220K files is normal. They told
me to turn on the ext2 dir_index option. Cheking my system I see that
none of partitions have it turned on so it must not be the default for
FC5.
I have to unmount the drive to convert existing directories. I can
trying doing the file move trick while the process is running since
new directories will use it.
