Hello =A0we are currently investigating performance issue on system runing =
above
btrs filesystem. Is it possible, that performance is impacted by lack=
of
free space? Also, how to get info about real free space on btrfs volu=
me?

The btrfs-show command is being deprecated. It's output can be easy to misunderstand, but it probably won't be corrected since it's going away at some point. Basically, what this is telling you is that 229.25GB is "committed" (213.23GB Data + 2 x8.00GB Metadata (because it's duplicated) + 2 x 8.00MB System. However, all the "committed" space is not being used (which is clearer in the 'btrfs filesystem df' command). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" = in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
