...I'm trying to hunt this down now to see if this was perhaps not related to the latest kernel.
There were a lot of problems with "no space left" (ENOSPC) and by looking up the 'rsv_check' stuff for btrfs, I came upon this thread: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-btrfs/msg05310.html "To avoid ENOSPC oops, btrfs in 2.6.35 reserves more metadata space for system use than older btrfs. If the FS has already ran out of metadata space, using btrfs in 2.6.35 doesn't help." Since I created the filesystem in pre-2.6.35, am I right to assume that no "metadata space increase function" (or whatever) has been implemented in post-2.6.35 either? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/791992 Title: btrfs in 2.6.38 extremely slow (when near full?) -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
