Hmmm, the BTRFS filesystems on my laptop 3 to 5 or even more years old. I stick with 4.10 for now, I think. The older ones are RAID 1 across two SSDs, the newer one is single device, on one SSD. These filesystems didn´t fail me in years and since 4.5 or 4.6 even the "I search for free space" kernel hang (hung tasks and all that) is gone as well.
