Humm, no. We won't tape over problems. If the defragging thing is a
performance issue we need to figure out why that happens, and as it
stands now it simply seems to be a weakness in the current btrfs kernel
code.
But we will not work around these problems from userspace just like
that.
I mean, I am fine with giving btrfs special support and stuff, but I
want input from the right kernel guys about about this. If they
recommend this, then sure, we can do something like this, but we don't
blindly tape over this.
Sorry,
Lennart
