Will post results a bit later. As a note, i'm not using reiserfs and it's magic, so that can't be the reason either. About MySql u're technically correct and i have had the subject like that: (when using MySql under Xen PV) but preforming all other IO operations i can think off on the PV, didn't result in digest integrity failing, so i removed Xen out of the subject. :-) Please note that there have been similar problems reported on this mailing list in the past in relation to MySql without Xen.
