I am using debian unstable 64 bit with lvm and ext3. All options are default.
How did I find out? This OS is a VM. And the disk data is in a
non-fixed size file, not compressed. Sorry I forgot how to say this in
English, by non-fixed size, I mean the VM software just allocate the
actual disk space that has data to write.
And I think this is not just about ext3, but ext3 & 64bit. Because
with the same environment, 32bit works fine for this process.

Thank you guys.
I have not follow Stephen's guide, but I figured the reason out. It
seems like an ext3's fault. The space (i-node wise) was used 5.x GB,
but the actual space (data wise) was used only 1 GB. So a lot of space
was just empty and wasted.
I experience the same thing some weeks ago (had to use a different
machine with a larger hard disk to get the job done). It is interesting
to note that you think that ext3 is at fault here. How did you find that
out? I would like to know whether it is a problem with ext3 at this time
in Unstable.
