I'd say the best way is clearing the beeshome directory and starting fresh. The second best way is deleting the hash table only and recreating it with the new size....

Change to the directory containing the `.beeshome` folder, then: ```bash mv .beeshome .beeshome.old btrfs sub create .beeshome rsync -av .beeshome.old/. .beeshome/. rm .beeshome/beeshash.dat # because the subvolumes differ ``` You...

`/run/bees/mnt/...` is only mounted while bees is running - and bees exits immediately because of the error. So try mounting subvolid=0 first: ```bash mkdir /mnt/btrfs-pool mount -o subvolid=0 UUID=0095faf2-2359-4515-a1e1-af7ef6f11a0f /mnt/btrfs-pool...

Simply `btrfs sub create /mnt/btrfs-pool/.beeshome`. If it exists already, rename it first.

On COW filesystems, it's usually only useful to measure free space fragmentation because you cannot avoid to fragment files - it's a feature of COW to do exactly that. I'm...

If I understood correctly, bees will not decrease fragmentation, but due to the way the new extent scanner works, it avoids a lot of additional fragmentation that the old scanner...

The knorrie version does a better job than plain `btrfs balance` because it frees least used chunks first, possibly filling other considered chunks to the max so it can skip...
