Why do you care about running them at the same time when it doesn't take longer to run them all in parallel? Except I think the root filesystem normally runs first. So you might want to stagger it vs. everything else.
I am trying to avoid running them at the same time in an effort to avoid 70 minute boot times (which is what happened on the weekend). I accept that fscks are required on a periodic basis and I am willing to reboot more often to achieve these but I would like to minimize downtime (during the reboot) where possible.
And unless you reboot frequently you are probably hitting the time setting, not the mount count.
This is in fact what transpired on the weekend and I would leave this in place as a protective measure.
