Hey All,
A new change proposal has been submitted for the Fedora 33 release
cycle which entails usage of btrfs by default [0] for Workstations and
Spins across x86_64 and ARM architectures As a result, we have
organized a test day on Wed, July 08, 2020. As a part of this test
day, we will aim at folks running a VM or bare metal install with
Btrfs as storage and sharing their experience. Results can be
submitted for the test cases[2]
Refer to the wiki page[1] for links to the test cases and materials
you’ll need to participate!
As usual, we will hang out on the #fedora-test-day over Freenode to
address questions

Hey Testers,
Monday, 2020-07-06 will be SwapOnZRAM Test Day[0]!
This Test Day will focus on SwapOnZRAM[1]. Swap partition is useful,
except when it's slow. Zram is a RAM drive that uses compression.
Create a swap-on-zram during start-up. And no longer use swap
partitions by default.
The zram module creates RAM based block devices named /dev/zram<id>
(<id> = 0, 1, ...). Pages written to these disks are compressed and stored
in memory itself. These disks allow very fast I/O and compression provides
good amounts of memory savings.
It's also pretty easy to join in and contribute, you can submit your
test day results here[2]
As always, the event will be in #fedora-test-day on Freenode IRC.
