If you use a seperate partition (or a container file) for the cache,
you can make it ext2 instead of ext3. That is a little bit faster and
if it breaks, it's no big deal as arla does not preserve the cache
between restarts anyway.

Currently Arlas internals are changing from filecache to blockcache,
so the next Arla version will have a completely different behaviour
towards the underlying file system, so this problem will not be fixed
in the current code but instead we will test how the new code works
against the not-so-usual Linux filesystems (xfs, reiserfs, tmpfs etc).

The current compat list for Linux is: ext2, ext3: YES. All others: No.
