The ZFS feature set is not a strict superset of what btrfs offers. The ability to online-restripe between almost any layout combination is quite useful for example. So is on-demand deduplication, which is also far less resource-intensive than ZFS dedup.
- Veratyr 9y ago> The ability to online-restripe between almost any layout combination is quite useful for example This is true but since the only stable replication options on BTRFS are RAID1 and single, this online restripe is of very limited usefulness. I'd _really_ like BTRFS to fix its issues so I could use this reshaping (it's the main feature I'm missing from current filesystems) but it's been years and replication is still unstable.
