Well that's exactly what it is, go away I'm busy with other stuff :). The fact is I'm the only one who can drive btrfs as the default filesystem feature in Fedora, and since I've left Red Hat that has become much less of an priority for me. But my "other stuff" is still mostly related to btrfs, so its not like this has just been abandoned, the focus has just shifted and I no longer feel like we need to be using btrfs as the default fs in Fedora to have a successful project, so it got moved down the priority list. It will happen, and when it happens it will be relatively painless because Suse will have worked out a lot of the distro esque kinks and us at Facebook will have worked out a lot of the at scale kinks. Thanks,

I think that the out of space issues are not that different from any file system on write enabled snapshots - it certainly can be mysterious and confuse users, but that is something that we have to deal with in order to get this kind of sophistication into end users hands (documentation? better tooling like the snapper tool, etc?).

One of the harder challenges I think for btrfs is still getting the repair tools rock solid - how is our track record these days with repairing btrfs after bad things happen :) ?

Ric
