Well the btrfs change proposal exists to improve the user experience.
User experience is the overriding goal behind everything we do. I've
just finished wading through the rest of the btrfs discussion, finding
most concerns about the filesystem not very compelling... but your
experience with btrfs is concerning to me. It seems you suffered from a
serious I/O performance issue. Since one of the goals of this proposal
is to *improve* system responsiveness under heavy load, it should go
without saying that we don't want to introduce noticeable performance
issues. I wonder if the change owners have any idea what might have
gone wrong for Alexandre? Is this something we could attempt to
reproduce and measure (if Alexandre is willing to do some further
testing to put numbers on the problem)?
Alexandre, if you could provide an estimate of approximately when this
happened (approximate kernel version)...?
