There are circumstances where a check is performed on ext3fs partitions after a crash. Imho it would be very unwise to turn off those checks: For instances they are performed, there must be some reason that they are neccessary, and turning off the check may result in data corruption. Moreover, it's not bad at all to have the partitions checked from time to time, just to make sure that everything is ok. Of course, it takes some time on large partitions, but imho securing the data is definitely worthwhile these few minutes. And having to recover from a backup takes much more effort and time ...
