Just curious: What would be the benefit of increasing the checkpoint
interval?
Laptops typically spin down disks to save power. If btrfs forces a write
every 30 second, you have to spin it back up.

As far as I understood it would not decrease write load on the drives
because it will only update a few pointers and probably increase the
generation number...
