Here is my configuration: $ lsblk ....................... └─sdb2 sdb2 8:18 bcache └─bcache0 bcache0 254:0 crypto_LUKS └─sdd4_crypt dm-7 253:7 btrfs poppy-encrypt ................................... └─sdd4 sdd4 8:52 bcache └─bcache0 bcache0 254:0 crypto_LUKS └─sdd4_crypt dm-7 253:7 btrfs poppy-encrypt ...................................................................... sdb2/sdd4 are attached caching/backing device. sdb2 is a empty partition on a SSD dedicated to bcache. No data on it. sdd4 is a encrypted/btrfs on a HD and will host, among other things, my DB. I didn't make any filesystem on sdd2. First question: shall I ? If yes, what will be the more appropriate for speed : ext2 or Btrfs?
