I considered a reboot with a forced all-FS check, but the slowness is so considerable that I'm afraid to stop hosted websites for hours if FS checks are as slow as standard I/O ; in addition, as our servers are rented and not physically accessible, we won't be able to monitor e2fsck to see its progress or potential problems. In fact, that's partly why I asked advices here: to avoid this potentially problematic full FS check as long as I can find other solutions. I'll try to find this article you quoted, maybe I will find some infos applying to my problem. Meanwhile, thanks for your help; if you have other details, I'm interested.
