Even mid range PCIe flash devices are fast enough to make the Btrfs numbers seem unreasonably slow.



My experience with btrfs in the real world was that it was unreasonably slow. At least an order of magnitude slower last time I tested it (which admittedly was a year or 2 ago). I keep hoping they'll introduce some massive speedups but until then it's ext4 or xfs for me.
