converting lzo compression to zlib compression?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have a btrfs filesystem mounted with "compress=lzo" now.

I'd like to see how much space would I save by converting it to zlib.


Would it be possible to convert lzo compression to zlib compression
with the following:

- mount the filesystem with "compress=zlib"
- run balance
- when balance finishes, the data would be compressed with zlib

Would this work as above, or do I have to copy the data out and back to
convert from lzo compression to zlib compression?
