Sorry for possibly OT question - when I have historical btrfs system

can I remount it with lzo ? What will happen? Will the COW be broken

be replaced with something even more bizzare?
Hello Lubos
If you have a kernel that supports lzo (don't quite remember when it got
in), why can't you?
Absolutely nothing will happen, and only the new/updated files will be
with lzo compression. You can remount on the fly switching b/w the two
compression options without any problems.
