Is it an exponential growth in the amount of time it takes? I've had some XFS partitions that were several hundred GBs (but not close to 1TB) and those seemed to pass the fsck stage very quickly.
If i remember right, it's 1 gb of memory per TB of space, plus additional memory overhead for X number of inodes.. i have both a large filesystem and millions of hardlinks, so lots of inodes.
