I've had 6-7 freezes since upgrading from Ext3 to Ext4 about 24 hours
ago. Prior to Ext4, I probably haven't had that many freezes in the past
year or more. Freezes have taken place:

1. While watching a video with VLC.
2. While trying to open a torrent file with Ktorrent by clicking a link in 
Firefox.
3. By opening Ktorrent (but most of the time Ktorrent works fine with the 
exception of #2, which always results in a system freeze).
4. Sometime during the night in the middle of a large (350+ MB) file transfer.

Just before the last crash, I started transferring a 180 MB file to a
thumbdrive. After the crash, the file was still in its original location
but the thumbdrive is short about 80 MB with no sign of the file. It's
like there's some phantom data taking up space that I can't see.
