Subject: Does btrfs filesystem defragment -r also include the trees?
Date: Thu, 20 Apr 2023 08:37:07 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <b7c067eb-e828-35f7-4b26-499173fd07d9@georgianit.com> (raw)
I have recently experienced that btrfs defragment (by itself, without
-r) of a subvolume can dramatically improve performance when accessing
very large directories. I would go so far as to call it critical
maintenance when working with gtk3 based file managers.
What I am not clear on, however, does adding the -r *also* defragment
the subvolume extent tree, or do the two commands needs to be run
separately to get the full effect?
