Hi, For a medium term project, I'm thinking of working on transparent compression for Btrfs. Please give any hints and comments on how we would want to go about this, the features we would like to have and some common pitfalls to avoid. Is looking at how it's done in Reiser4, a good idea ? Can we allow the compression algorithm be configurable on a per file basis, may be using an xattr ? This, for example, would allow us to make a compromise between speed and compression ratio. Any other ideas welcome. -- Thanks, Balaji Rao -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
