The OP DID say he doesn't really care about security, recovery, nor integrity (or at least, it's not an obligatiion) :D Other than trying latest -rc and using libeatmydata, I can't see what else can be done to improve current db performance on btrfs. As the list archive shows, zfs is currently MUCH more suitable for that. -- Fajar -- 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
