can you reproduce the problem or has this been a one time issue?
did you turn off the "periodic fsck" on e.g. ext3? see:

# tune2fs -l /dev/md0
...
Filesystem state:         clean
Errors behavior:          Continue
..
Mount count:              2
Maximum mount count:      23
Last checked:             Sat Aug  8 16:17:11 2009
Check interval:           15552000 (6 months)
Next check after:         Thu Feb  4 15:17:11 2010
..

cheers,
