On similar data, 65k. That's about 69:1. bzip2 takes significantly longer than gzip, though. I suspect the whole archive format would haveto go bzip2 for bzip2 to be tolerated, and you'd probably want to compress a smaller unit, like a given package or package-version.
And if you cat all the log files together, you get 2.6 M, which means ext2 is wasting less than 50% of the space.
On Reiser, it's in between, at 3.5M Aaron -- Aaron Bentley Director of Technology Panometrics, Inc.
