ext3 performance vs. partition size


Does ext3 performance degrade with increasing partition size? If so -- linearly? exponentially? Has anyone seen any benchmarks on this?

ext3 is nothing but ext2+journalling. So i guess there will be a performance degrade with larger partition when compared to ext2.

I dont have any idea other than this. Hope this helps.

Thanks,
