I have freebsd 5.0 and it uses softupdates which I hear
it is better or equal to journal filesystem.  Also
softupdates writes to the disk in the event of a crash
to make recovering faster.  So, if I were working on a
unsaved document or project and the system crash or freezes
where and how do I recover it.
