FUD alert... https://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/linuxcon-japan/bo --- LinuxCon Japan 2012 | Presentations On The Way to a Healthy Btrfs Towards Enterprise Btrfs has been on full development for about 5 years and it does make lots of progress on both feature and performance, but why does everybody keep tagging it with ""experimental""? And why do people still think of it as a vulnerable one for production use? As a goal of production use, we have been strengthening several features, making improvements on performance and keeping fixing bugs to make btrfs stable, for instance, ""snapshot aware defrag"", ""extent buffer cache"", ""rbtree lock contention"", etc. This talk will cover the above and will also show problems we are facing with, solutions we are seeking for and a blueprint we are planning to lay out. For this session, I'll focus on its features and performance, so for the target audience, it'd be better to have a basic knowledge base of filesystem. Liu Bo, Fujitsu Liu Bo has been working on linux kernel development since late 2010 as a Fujitsu engineer. He has been working on filesystem field and he's now focusing on btrfs development. ---- FC -- During times of Universal Deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act Durante épocas de Engaño Universal, decir la verdad se convierte en un Acto Revolucionario - George Orwell
