They are still problematic for some people.

For instance there is an unfortunate interaction between quotas and snapshots, 
there was someone having issues on btrfs list recently where the btrfs-cleaner 
kernel thread would consume a whole core whilst quotas were enabled:

http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-btrfs/msg45652.html

# I can confirm that getting rid of the quotas fixed the issue for me.
# Just disabling quotas wasn't enough, I had to enable, delete all
# qgroups, reboot because disable was hung on one of the filesystems,
# then disable quotas.  Now when btrfs-cleaner runs it doesn't
# completely consume a core, I can see corresponding disk i/o, and the
# process goes away after a reasonable amount of time.

To give some context this person had 92 subvolumes, including snapshots.

All the best,
Chris
