Yes, such possibility does exist.

Fsck can work faster if you have many subvolumes
per superblock (currently reiser4 supports only one
subvolume per superblock).

This is both, CPU and I/O bound.

The first one can be improved if we make fsck process
all subvolumes in parallel. The second one can be improved
if we map subvolumes to different physical (scsi) drives.

I hope so..

Thanks,
