So I will try with an even larger persistent store, allowing me to do more comprehensive installs and compile large programs.
I have used ext3 persistent store for quite sometime now. The only performance problem with large ext3 and ext2 file system ( not specifically to loop-mounted ones ) is when you have to do file system check. The file system check time is really slow when compared to ext4.
