6 I think btrfs is usable, but not without its problems. I don't think
7 I'd run it without a daily backup onto something that doesn't run
8 btrfs. I'm running btrfs in raid1 configuration, and I've only
9 restored from the backup once, though if I didn't have it I probably
10 could have still recovered (ENOSPC issue - the usual solutions weren't
11 working). Earlier this week I was having lockup issues (I tried to
12 re-enable snapper and deleting a few snapshots at once caused it to
13 stop syncing, and then for several days any kind of heavy write
14 activity would cause the issue to repeat, which I suspect was the
15 result of delayed cleanup).
