The problem with JFFS2 is that is does not scale. 126 MiB is very large 
partition for it. Read 
http://www.linux-mtd.infradead.org/tech/JFFS3design/node3.html for more 
details. JFFS2 was designed for small flashes and works perfectly with them.

BTW, the flash file system for Large-scale flashes is rather challenging 
task.
