356noinit_itable Do not initialize any uninitialized inode table
357 blocks in the background. This feature may be
358 used by installation CD's so that the install
359 process can complete as quickly as possible; the
360 inode table initialization process would then be
361 deferred until the next time the file system
362 is unmounted.

364init_itable=n The lazy itable init code will wait n times the
365 number of milliseconds it took to zero out the
366 previous block group's inode table. This
367 minimizes the impact on the systme performance
