I've got this problem with an ext4 filesystem on an external usb disk of mine, I've documented the problem (and my approaches for solving it) here: http://serverfault.com/questions/446074/e2fsck-extremly-slow-although-enough-memory-exists I started gparted and with it e2fsck is around 2012-11-04_2200 and its 2012-11-07_0923 right now (CET). It used up nearly 57 hours of cpu time since then, and I would like to find out if and when it will finish. Can somebody tell me if and how I could get this information? Thanks for developing this great filesystem, and thanks for helping me out in my hour[s ;)] of need. Kind Regards, Thomas K.
