I hope this message stays within the thread on the list. I had email problems and ended up hacking around with sendmail & grabbing the message id off of the web based group archives. >I wondered whether you had elimated fragmentation, or any other known gotchas, >as a cause? Subvolumes are mounted with the following options: autodefrag,relatime,compress=lzo,subvol=<sub vol name> Not sure if there is much else to do about fragmentation apart from running a balance which would probally make thje machine v sluggish for a day or so. >Out of curiosity, what is/was the utilisation of the disk?

The system disk is getting a little tight. cddisk reports the partition I use for btrfs containing root as 127GB approx. Not sure why it grows so much. Suspect that software updates can't help as snapshots will contain the legacy versions. On the other hand they can be useful. Is it likely the SSD? If likely I could get a larger one, now is a good time with a new version of slackware imminent. However, no point in spending money for the sake of it. All snapshots read-write. However, I have mainly treated them as read-only. Does that make a difference? >Apropos Nada: quick shout out to Qu to wish him luck for the 4.6 merge. I'm wondering if it is time for an update from 4.0.4? >[Also, damn you autocorrection on my phone!] Yep! -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
