I'm not familiar with this preen program, but I owuld point out that DEC has
improved the "fsck -p" option so that it doesn't bother with filesystems
that are "clean" or haven't been modified since last unmounted.  This lets
you do a planned shutdown/startup quickly, though after a crash, it's still
going to take a while...
