Oh, if you need a safe COW filesystem today I'd definitely recommend |

ZFS over btrfs for sure, although I suspect the people who are most |
6 |
likely to take this sort of advice are also the sort of people who are |
7 |
most likely to not be running Gentoo. There are a bazillion problems |
8 |
with btrfs as it stands. |

However, fundamentally there is no reason to think that ZFS will |
11 |
remain better in the future, once the bugs are worked out. They're |
12 |
still focusing on keeping btrfs from hosing your data - tuning |
13 |
performance is not a priority yet. However, the b-tree design of |
14 |
btrfs should scale very well once the bugs are worked out. |
