HI,Chris, yes...I did regenerate free_space last time Frederic told me to. the next boot after removing clear_cache from fstab is super slow. but after that boot, kernel still needs 135s to load... > If it isn't the free space cache, it'll be a fragmentation problem.

My btrfs is automatically created during openSUSE install, so I don't know which command I can use to do so...please forgive my freshness and stupidity...
