I'd recommend to set chrome caching to simple http cache in
chrome://flags as this is more suitable for btrfs (as for most Unix
file systems which deal with many small files better than with random
updates in a big fat files).

I experienced much improved performance and responsiveness with it. May
be worth a try for you. I'd be interested in your results.
