[Cialug] BtrFS

[Theron Conrey]

anyone have a link to show it as "half baked" or "unfinished"?

The linux kernel team considers it stable. As a ZFS user, I'd love to say
it's not stable, but honestly, it's used at scale effectively in some
pretty significant deployments.
Having missed the presentation, was there a
different option/recommendation provided?
