If you've been using this volume for a while, it could just have become badly fragmented. You could try btrfs's fancy online defragmentation abilities to see if that'll give you an improvement: # btrfs filesystem defragment /mountpoint/of/volume Let us know if that helps, of course :) -- Calvin Walton <calvin.wal...@gmail.com> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
