Block allocation in Ext2FS is currently eager (all blocks are immediately allocated when file size changes.)
This makes something like truncate -s 50000000 take a long time, while it's instant on other systems.
truncate -s 50000000
We should defer block allocation to when a block is actually written to instead. Making an inode larger should only update the size field.
