It is an attachment to one of my posts, somewhere.

Don't be concerned -
Since fsck has completed, the bad blocks have been replaced with spares.

It takes so long (longer than a battery would last - which is why the wall charger) because the way fsck works on a nand device, it has to start over every time a bad block gets remapped.

It will be fun when the people with 32Gbyte flash start having bad blocks.
What will that take to "fix&clean"? Weeks?

With access to a Linux system, there is a way you can force a re-format of the user storage on the next boot.
It is also posted here somewhere (start with all the old, indexed, de-bricking threads to find it).
