I have no real information about how this works, but I will address your
comment that it's "random" - the only one that does not follow a size->time
progression is the 4G partition. I have no explanation for this, except that
it's the last one. I wonder if you used the same syntax in your command to
create each one?
If you sort by number of mounts between fscks:
/dev/sda2 100M 20 mounts
/dev/sda1 1000M 21 mounts
/dev/sda8 5000M 27 mounts
/dev/sda6 100000M 28 mounts
/dev/sda7 195000M 35 mounts
/dev/sda5 200000M 37 mounts
/dev/sda9 4000M 37 mounts
