    What's the full line? I tried btrfstune --convert-to-block-group-tree /dev/sdc but that just gives a message unrecognized option '--convert-to-block-group-tree'
    I am running kernel 6.2.16-18

      Buggy SSD firmware. Flaky power supply. Cosmic ray.

      Plus, if as a filesystem developer, you define out "filesystem has an undetected data loss bug" from your list of possible failure modes, you are an idiot.

      Robust system design requires understanding the concept of knowns/unknowns/unknown unknowns.

          Well say did Firefox ruin your partition? Do you think it has any line of code that does the right (and by right I mean wrong) thing? How did you scan it?
          I'm not sure I fully understand your question , but any program can do something weird that hits a untested condition in just about any other program to cooperates with (for example a filesystem) and wreck havoc. That is why tests are changed and/or added to test suites all the time... for example : https://people.redhat.com/bcodding/n...stest_generic/

            It is 'btrfstune --convert-to-block-group-tree', but you need new enough btrfs-progs. There are statically built versions on https://wiki.tnonline.net/w/Btrfs/St...lt_btrfs-progs or github that has this feature built-in.

              Just complied it. Waiting for the conversion. Fingers crossed

              Just finished the conversion - wow what a difference. Went from 35 seconds to instant
