From reading https://openbenchmarking.org/result/1512034-HA-LINUX44FI45 it seems that XFS will still be a one of the best filesystems out there when Ubuntu 16.04/Trisquel 8 launch with the 4.4 kernel as the default. As usual, btrfs lags behind a lot and no one really knows when it is going to be production ready. I know that Facebook employs someone full time to work on btrfs hoping it will be better.

Maybe the current status of btrfs is why so many people want ZFS on GNU/Linux as soon as possible. Without ZFS support,some companies may move to the BSDs in order to get it.
