Or as if it were a half-baked project cooked hours ago.BTRFS is five years old.

"In 2008, the principal developer of the ext3 and ext4 file systems, Theodore Ts'o, stated that although ext4 has improved features, it is not a major advance, it uses old technology, and is a stop-gap; Ts'o believes that Btrfs is the better direction because "it offers improvements in scalability, reliability, and ease of management".^[4] Btrfs also has "a number of the same design ideas thatreiser3/4 had".^[5]"
