<div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">it works well, sometimes it is kind of slow.</font></div><div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">Specially I'm having problems with VM's, (both in VirtualBox and VMware Player) their</font></div>
<div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">performance and the system's one are both HORRIBLE! This never happened in F14 with</font></div><div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">Ext4 (Filesystem was the only "deep change" I made to my system when upgraded) So I was</font></div>
<div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">wondering if there are some tips to improve system's performance in F15 with BTRFS.</font></div><div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif"><br>
</font></div><div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">Also the system delays a little in boot and I don't like that, Any Suggestions?</font></div><div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif"><br>
