But I thought that btrfs is the best FS for handling that. Besides other storage methods than keeping small files on a filesystem. This is why I wanted to give it a try. It's currently just an experiment for me to evaluate best practices. > Besides, currectly Btrfs doesn't play quite well with such small files, you may > had a patch for it, IIRC.

Looking real quick on the patch and the git commits I would confirm that this is already in the kernel 2.6.35 (which Ubuntu 10.10 uses). So there is a good chance to have a "repaired" filesystem when I recreate it.
