If flexible parallelization is all you're worried about, not data integrity or the other things btrfs does, I'd suggest looking at a more mature solution such as md- or dm-raid. They're more mature and less complex than btrfs, and if you're not using the other features of btrfs anyway, they should simply work better for your use-case. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
