[Bug 453579] Re: in-place corruption of large files *without fsck or reboot* reported with linux 2.6.31-14.46 on ext4

[Z149]

I am also having problems possibly ext4 related.
After clearing up some big files, the 'free space' reported in my ext4 / filesystem did not decrease.
Emptying the wastebasket and sensible checks have found no cause.
New files added and then deleted and emptied from the wastebasket used up some of my last precious free space and I've not got that space back.

'big' files includes a couple of zipped backups of 0.1 and 0.2 GB, and a monstrous 3.1GB archive.
Nothing ordinary cleared the space. fsck did not help.
could it be ext4?
