Public bug reported:

((Ok, this is the first time every I file a bug, so give me also
feedback when I report wrong..))

First of all, I want to build a system for production in wich I can build (very) fast new VM's.
I installed Ubuntu Server 10.04.2 64Bit as host OS with the following partitions:

/Boot [Prim] 1GB (EXT4)
/ [Prim] 25GB (EXT4)
swap [Prim] 25GB (swap)
---extended---
/tmp [Logical] 25GB (EXT4)
/var/log [Logical] 10GB (EXT4)
lvm [Logical] 1,5TB (lvm)

When I use VMBuilder and build to a RAW logica volume (lvm), it takes more than 12 minutes!
Then I tried to change the /tmp partition (of the HOST) to EXT3 and it did take less than 4 minutes!!!!

The only problem now is that the VM gives the following error on startup:
EXT4-fs error (device sda1): ext4_mb_generate_buddy:
EXT4-fs group 2: 3431 blocks in bitmap, 3597 in gd

Any ideas?
Maybe first any ideas for a workaround?
