| [PLUG] Btrfs Talk Slides |
Slides from my talk can be found at: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1U017ELTcFFqjleRe1YbUQ1_vKBAT0_8u8wqNbK1YV2U/edit?usp=sharing There is a wealth of info on the web, especially on the official wiki. The data structures in btrfs are actually worth some attention as there is a lot of clever optimization there. Certainly would make a nice little applied case-study for a data structures class/etc. There was some discussion at dinner around whether the B-tree still makes as much sense in the era of SSD. A quick Google search turned up a modest amount of discussion on this topic which I plan to study. A quick google search also turned up SystemRescueCD as a btrfs-enabled rescue CD - I will probably do some testing with it. This one is gentoo-based, which isn't critical to me other than for the fact that it is very current on btrfs-progs, and kernel 3.10/3.13. If your root is on btrfs then having a modern btrfs-enabled rescue CD is important. Thanks to all for the great Q&A/etc. Rich ___________________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group -- http://www.phillylinux.org Announcements - http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion -- http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
