Performance - Cache Dirs on journaling file system

I am considering converting my SQUID machines running on Linux from
e2fs/ext2 file system to the reiser journaling file system as included in
the Suse distribution. Does anyone have any thoughts on possible
performance issues with such a decision?

I currently have a couple systems with 2 x 4GB cache (separate
drives). After a (rare) unplanned system shutdown, it takes close to 20
minutes to completely check and fix drive/file problems. this creates
issues with clients - some do not have adequate power backups.

TIA
