Btrfs may not be right for you.  The on-disk format has stabilized, but it is 
still very much in development.

If it isn't, I recommend moving to ext3 (NOT ext4) as a temporary measure.  
Once btrfs matures to your comfort level, you can use btrfs_convert to change 
from ext3 to btrfs in place.  The conversion process even creates a snapshot 
which can use used to roll back to the original ext3 filesystem.
