- riku_iki 8mo agoI do it. The big problem for me from running DB on Btrfs is that when I delete large dirs or files (100GB+), it locks disk system, and Db basically stop responding on any queries. I am very surprised that FS which is considered prod grade having this issue..
- jlundberg 8mo agoTry XFS if you havn’t yet. Very solid and no such issues.
- ddtaylor 8mo agoI haven't used XFS in almost two decades, does it have compression support in the same way? Also, does it do JBOD stuff? I know it's a bit of a different thing, but I really enjoy the pool many disks together part of Btrfs, although it has its limitations.
- EvanAnderson 8mo agoXFS doesn't have inline compression, nor does it have volume management functionality. It's a nice filesystem (and it's very fast) but it's just a filesystem.
- riku_iki 8mo agoNo compression.
