My understanding is that btrfs has some smarts to avoid triggering excessive wear-levelling when it detects it's running from a flash-backed device (a block device which is likely a SSD, SD/MMC, or CF etc.). It might be a better choice than extN to avoid wear-levelling. I don't use btrfs myself though, but mostly extN. :-) -- Loïc Minier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
