When I look at the entire FS with df-like tools it is reported as 89.4% used (26638.65 of 29808.2 GB). But this is shared amongst both data and metadata I guess?
I do know that ~90%+ seems full, but it is still around 3TB in my case! Are the "percentage rules" of old times still valid with modern disk sizes? It seems extremely inconvenient that a filesystem like btrfs is starting to misbehave at "only" 3TB available space for RAID10 mirroring and metadata, which is probably a little bit over 1TB actual filestorage counting everything in. I would normally expect that there is no difference in 1TB free space on a FS that is 2TB in total, and 1TB free space on a filesystem that is 30TB in total, other than my sense of urge and that you would probably expect data growth to be more rapid on the 30TB FS as there is obviously a need to store a lot of stuff. Is "free space needed" really a different concept dependning on the size of your FS?
