Yes you magically don't get more IO operations.
data=journal was more of a question in the ext3 days when you did not have online defragmentation as part of ext4. Yes defraging ext3 when it got fragment was fairly much copy everything from partition 1 to partition 2. Ext3 had decent fragmentation resistance without journal mode but it was not impossible to fragment the crap out of it.
That was when using the ext3 file system driver. Please remember that ext3 file system driver is these days with most distributions is using the ext4 driver that has auto defrag. That change over from using the ext3 file system driver to the ext4 file system driver end most of the advantage of data=journal because of the effect of the auto defrag.Last edited by oiaohm; 01 August 2021, 05:00 PM.

The new machine will be 5950x and initially have a 2TB SDD plus 8TB rotating rust for backup and storage. I use rsnapshot for backup. Fedora is my daily driver. I'm open to suggestions, but I'm thinking
/dev/sda:
1MB grub2
256MB UEFI fat16 or exFAT WHICH???
2GB boot
64GB ext4 Fedora
64GB ext4 CentOS9 when released
128GB linux swap
1.74TB <rest>
