Thanks but changing the order of execution or executing them in parallel does not help with executing them one per reboot.
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.
And unless you reboot frequently you are probably hitting the time setting, not the mount count.
How frequently does one reboot (CentOS) Linux? Well, my observation is: every 30-45 days there is either kernel or glibc update so you have to reboot. This makes it about 10 reboots a year, so you are pretty much close to hitting mount count as much as time from last fsck for ext[2,3,4].
As it was already mentioned: XFS is marvellous. I use it forever for huge filesystems on Linux boxes. I remember howto by Russel Ingram was titled "Linux + XFS HOWTO. Linux on Steroids"...
