Guest repliedOriginally posted by pmorph View PostYet another *facepalm* for my decision to move all drives from XFS to EXT4, back when I got my first SSD.
I think I'll just do XFS in the future, see how it goes.

Anyway, nothing much has changed since the 1980s in computer science. If it was good then, it's still good now.

Btrfs and compression is great on rootfs on SD cards. Speeds things up and helps with wear.

Glade to see BTRFS performance is good enough when compared with EXT4. I'm using BTRFS on every desktop and rpi 4 right now, for it's snapshot and subvol features, really useful and addictive indeed; one can install various distros or even mix PC/Rpi distros on same disk/partition via different BTRFS subvols.Last edited by antonyshen; 05 July 2020, 02:12 AM.

XFS isn't that finicky anymore, assuming your hardware is working properly (ie no unstable overclocks/faulty RAM/storage/cables etc.). You should always back up your data though, no matter the filesystem.

ext4 being slow is not a regression, it's a systemic issue that was already known in 2012, cf. https://youtu.be/FegjLbCnoBw?t=1242
