Using Intel Optane to accelerate a BTRFS array? (equivalent of ZLOG/SIL for ZFS?)

Hi,

I have a small 12-bay SuperMicro server I'm using as a local NAS, with
FreeNAS/ZFS.

Each drive is a 12TB HDD.

I'm in the process of moving it to Linux - and I thought this might be
a good chance to try out BTRFS again =).

(I'd previously tried BTRFS many years a go, and hit some issues -
it's possible this may have been made worse by my inexperience with
BTRFS at the time - e.g.
https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-btrfs/msg04240.html)

Anyhow - currently the server has a 750GB Intel Optane drive, that
we're using as a ZLOG/SIL drive:

https://www.ixsystems.com/community/threads/how-best-to-use-960gb-optane-in-freenas-build.75798/#post-527264

My question is - what's the equivalent in BTRFS-land?

Or what is the best way to use an ultra-fast Intel Optane drive to
accelerate reads/writes on a BTRFS array?

Thanks,
Victor
