Hi, I have a particularly uncomplicated setup (a desktop PC with a hard disk) and I'm seeing particularly slow performance from btrfs. A `git status` in the linux source tree takes about 46 seconds after dropping caches, whereas on other machines using ext4 this takes about 13s. My mail client (evolution) also seems to perform particularly poorly on this setup, and my hunch is that it's spending a lot of time waiting on the filesystem.
Weird, I get the exact opposite performance. Anyway it's probably because of your file layouts, try defragging your git dir and see if that helps. Thanks,
