--- Comment #28 from Wyatt Childers <kdebugs.81do7@haxing.ninja> ---
So, as an update to this, I've filed an upstream kernel bug against btrfs
(https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216961).

As the original reporter (and someone who has observed several other hangs
related to with btrfs), I believe at least a major factor is a regression in
Kernel 6.0 with btrfs's scheduling. I think ideally, kwin shouldn't directly do
much of anything that blocks on IO (as slower drives and bugs of this nature
can severely impact user experience), so this should still be fixed. However,
it definitely seems to be exacerbated by the severity of extremely long periods
of disk sleep for "trivial" IO operations.
