I have a report from a google person who just did some basic
power-it-off-during-a-write testing on 2.6.20's ext3.  ordered-data is OK,
but data=journal came back with crap in the file data.

Is anyone doing any formal recovery stress-testing?

I suspect we should resurrect and formalise my old
make-the-disk-stop-accepting-writes-when-a-timer-goes-off thing.  It was
very useful for stress-testing recovery.
