I'm a Gentoo user and figured mounting /usr/portage & /var/portage (distfiles, packages, persistent stuff normally in /usr/portage) and /tmp moiunted as btrfs. I figured it would be a decent test & its nothing I cann't replace readily. After about 6 hours of uptime and a couple package merges, I checked ps aux & am getting the following:
