introduce BTRFS

Open romain-dartigues opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

This patch attempt to introduce BTRFS as a usable filesystem under Linux stemcells as briefly discussed in #299.

BTRFS benefited noticeable improvements since Linux 5.17, further reducing the performance gap it suffered.

While not recommended for all usages, it has some interesting features we would like to use for some edge cases, such as online compression.

We are looking for feedback on this pull request.

Hi Ruben, yes sorry for the pollution in the PR, I wanted to run some tests in our infrastructure before removing the Draft; please allow me a few more days.
