Just about all the sites have pointed to running scrub under a cron

AI-fueled clickbait sites often dominate search results and multiply
the same AI halucinations. A big fraction of my 35+ years employment
relied on XFS (SGI IRIX64 systems) for processing remote-sensing

data. Bitrot was an issue, so each data file had a companion checksum
file that was checked when using a file. With today's much larger data
volumes, bitrot should be handled automatically. Btrfs does this, but there
are some tradeoffs: legacy tools don't account for the extra overhead and
periodic maintenance is required.
And from what I have read, this is what the scrub command is supposed to
do.
