I have the same problem like Hump. I have turned off journaling and turned writeback on.

dmesg | grep EXT4 reports:

EXT4-fs (sda1): mounted filesystem without journal. Opts: data=writeback,barrier=0,nobh,errors=remount-ro

recording resync buffer = OFF
recording demux buffer = 1 MB

as recommended.

I still have one or two freezers per recording, the same as Hump (last Update 27.01.2012).
I did an PLI update today. But if there was no change within the ext4 drivers, there should be no difference.

@MiLo
Is there any hope for a fix in the near future? I know ETA are nearly impossible. But to change to ext2 I would need to copy 1,4 TB to an external USB, format ext2 and restore again. That would mean 2 days of copy work.

There are so many reports of ext2 users, who do not have any problems. But they use the "older" ext2/3 kernel modules (manually installed).
