I for one will go with Btrfs. This is where the action is at, ATM, and more
and more companies are investing in BTRFS and going with it: SUSE, Fujitsu,
Docker, Facebook, Oracle...

///
Btrfs 1.0, with finalized on-disk format, was originally slated for a
late-2008 release,[12] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Btrfs#cite_note-12>
and was finally accepted into the Linux kernel mainline
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_kernel_mainline> in 2009.[13]
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Btrfs#cite_note-13> Several Linux
distributions <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_distribution> began
offering Btrfs as an experimental choice of root file system
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_file_system> during installation.[14]
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Btrfs#cite_note-14>[15]
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Btrfs#cite_note-15>[16]
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Btrfs#cite_note-16> In summer 2012, several
Linux distributions moved Btrfs from experimental to production or
supported status.[17] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Btrfs#cite_note-17>[18]

The ZFS Zealots (ZZ or Z-square) brigade act like kids on a temper trantum
because they preferred toy was left out of the playground. Please get down
your crying and yelling, there's people trying to work here (with btrfs).
