Looking for > patterns in 256MB files is too expensive. I think I may have found a workaround to my problem : use dm-zero to create a sparse 256 MB device backed by a smaller partition. I don't know if that would be useful for your crypto signature analysis. Of course it would be better if btrfs simply allowed smaller partitions.
