Hello!
Credit to Oleg Drokin. This changeset enables preallocation of blocks
on reiserfs filesystems by default. Prevents excessive
interleaving of file layouts and excessive calls to the allocator
that can hurt performance, especially on multiprocess workloads.
This simply restores the default to what was in 2.4.19 but using the new
allocator code. Please apply. You can get it from
