  1. Found a few more or less bad #benchmarks about #NILFS2 / #F2FS on #SMR drives vs #btrfs. Is anyone actually using those? How's small file update performance? #ext4 performance is a few files ( \< 5) per second, and that's really bad. #linux #filesystem #storage #blockdevice
  2. #Btrfs #tailmerging #suballocation #tailpacking #disinformation #filesystem #filesystems #linux #blockdevice #facts - Just checked the facts, there's no tail-packing / tail-merging / sub-allocation feature even if many posts on the net claim so. It's annoying when some things are repeated as fact without checking the facts.
