Additionally, the crash recovery time for journaling file systems is dramatically reduced compared to more traditional file system methods (such as those that rely on FSCK).
另外，与较传统的文件系统方法(比如那些依赖于fsck的系统)相比，日志文件系统大大地缩短了系统崩溃的恢复时间。
Journaling file systems use a journal to buffer changes to the file system (which is also used in crash recovery) but can use different strategies for when and what is journaled.
日志文件系统是使用日志来缓冲文件系统的修改(同时也可以应用于紧急故障恢复)的，但可以根据记录的时间与内容采取不同的策略。

After successfully getting ReiserFS merged into the Linux kernel and adopted by many Linux distributions, Namesys (the company behind ReiserFS) began work on a new journaling file system.
在成功地将ReiserFS合并到Linux内核，并被很多的Linux发行版采用之后，Namesys(开发ReiserFS的公司)便开始致力于新的日志文件系统的开发。
To sum up, journaling file systems are fault-resilient file systems that use a journal to log changes before they're committed to the file system to avoid metadata corruption (see Figure 1).
总之，日志文件系统就是一种具有故障恢复能力的文件系统，它利用日志来记录尚未提交到文件系统的修改，以防止元数据破坏(请参见图1)。

This example shows ext3, but the Journaling flash File system version 2 (JFFS2) and SquashFS are also good choices, particularly for flash-based storage systems.
这个示例使用ext3，但是JournalingFlashFile Systemversion2 (JFFS2)和SquashFS也是合适的选择，尤其是对于基于闪存的存储系统。
