Hi again Goffredo,

I've removed, on one of my machines, all snapshots but three per subvol
(keeping the oldests and newest), going from about 30 per subvol to 3,
for the complete filesystem from 120+ to about a dozen.

Then I let btrfs-cleaner do its job

After that the machine boots to GUI in a bit less than 2 minutes, where
it was more than 4 minutes previously.

The machine now seems much more reactive and swift.

So it seems that the number or active snapshots (or is it the number of
subvols whatsoever ??) dramatically impacts performance...

Thanks for the suggestion.
