Comment (by mf2k):

 According [http://blog.hostilefork.com/trashes-fseventsd-and-
 spotlight-v100/ this blog entry]. You can do the following to turn off the
 logging.

 "To keep it [fseventsd] from doing logging of filesystem events on the
 drive, you need to make a directory called .fseventsd and inside that
 folder put a single file named no_log."
