Hi!
Here's an utility to measure used compression type + ratio on a set of files
or directories: https://github.com/kilobyte/compsize

Great tool. Just tried it on some of my backup snapshots.

   # compsize portage.20170904T2200
   142432 files.
   all   78%  329M/ 422M
   none 100%  227M/ 227M
   zlib  52%  102M/ 195M

   # du -sh  portage.20170904T2200
   787M    portage.20170904T2200

   # btrfs fi du -s  portage.20170904T2200
        Total   Exclusive  Set shared  Filename
    271.61MiB     6.34MiB   245.51MiB portage.20170904T2200

Interesting results. How do I interpret them?


Compsize also doesn't seem to like some non-standard files and throws an error (even though they should be ignored?):

# compsize usb-backup/volumes/root/root.20170727T2321/
open("usb-backup/volumes/root/root.20170727T2321//tmp/screen/S-root/2757.pts-1.e350"): No such device or address
