Actually, I found that the ext3 journalling recovery is still lacking.
The real benefit to ext3 is that you can easily convert and existing
ext2 filesystem. I've personally found ReiserFS to be better. My system
was locking frequently for a while (due to a power supply which I
replaced). Even with ext3, sometimes the journals did not recover, but
with ReiserFS the system recovered rapidly. 

But, the bottom line is that a journalling file system certainly makes
restarts much faster at the tradeoff of some performance.
