Why so far back though, the latest 4.4 and 4.9 are both good series and run without issues for me since a long time.

It's much more flexible than bcache, does pretty much the same job, and has much less of the "hacky" feel to it. -- With respect, Roman -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
