(performance problem with virtual machines)

I must add that, in my experience, the performance is *bad* not only in virtual 
machines but in the whole user experience (I've been using btrfs in my /home 
partition for a while now and I'm sorry to say that it's really slow compared 
to ext4).

In my humble opinion, as of right now, btrfs is not yet ready to be used as 
default

Yes, I'd veto btrfs as the default as well. I lost a huge chunk of
data on a btrfs partition a while back, with *no* diagnostics,
recovery tools, help from Google, etc. Screw speed - unless it's rock
solid and *simple* to back up, maintain, diagnose and manage, I won't
use it.


The most helpful approach would be provide bug reports, when btrfs will be proposed as a default file system (again). Without bug reports, real numbers etc. is hard to make any decision. I don't wish to test on my machine, so I would be glad for hard data from others ;-)

(btw the typo in subject is terrible).
