It's ext4. Always ext4.

>>57809035
I use xfs too for desktop and cloud server too. I has a bunch of blackout and always worked well.

xfs

Mainly because it's stable enough to be the default in Red Hat 7, and I ran out of inodes once, so I'd rather use a filesystem that doesn't run out.

I started using btrfs for non-critical systems and it's been pretty nice so far

I tried btrfs, but my laptop started booting into a kernel panic after every update. Back to ext4 now.

>>57809035
ext4 with bcache. Great cartoon you're watching though

file systems is one thing I can never get a clear answer for

which is better for what, etc. beyond swap and ext4

I seriously can't think of a single reason BTRFS exists in the same universe as ZFS. Why did people seriously waste time making a whole new system of questionable quality over refining the ZFS port.

btrfs supposed to replace ext4, also good for some kind of raid (0, mirroring). Zfs isn't stable on linux as it came from elsewhere and even oracle don't give a shit about it, but who knows when their lawyers get triggered. As wikipedia says facebook uses btrfs already so it's ready for some kind of work.

>>57810177
>Zfs isn't stable on linux
Which is why I'm wondering why people choose to make a new filesystem over making the ports stable. ZFS is already mature and proven, it also has many tools built around it. People seem to be in agreement that it's one of the best filesystems available so I'm real curious as to why there's not a greater push for it on other platforms, we could have some ubiquity across all *nix platforms instead of having more fragmentation and reimplimenting tools.

I just can't believe we've had this really good option for over a decade, yet it's only popular on some systems. Even with projects like OpenZFS. Things should be much better for all *nix users, not just some.

This isn't a jab, but the anecdotes I keep hearing makes it seem like btrfs isn't stable on Linux either, which is understandable for a young fs like that but still.

I always wondered how useful that would be for home use, seems unnecessary outside of special use cases where you have a lot of duplicate data being written and read constantly.

Why are people wanking ZFS off into their mouths so much in this thread?

ZFS

>>57811396
It's good. It's main problem is that it can't be in the mainline kernel because of licensing fuckery.

The closest promising alternative (at least in the Linux world) is btrfs, and it's had a long and difficult development with repeated show-stopper bugs. RAID56 still isn't fixed. OpenZFS, despite not being in the kernel, has been more mature and stable on Linux than btrfs has been, for quote some time.

did you really delete your post just to have the image have a different filename?

>>57811396
It is by far the best all around filesystem out there and you can actually use it. People talk about ZFS in almost any filesystem discussion anywhere.

>>57811450
The Linux ports are older than btrfs, the file system itself is older, and both are just inherently more tested and developed as a result.

Look even in this thread >>57809605
For years now I've seen people reporting kernel instability or worse, data loss with btrfs. It feels bad to witness, people should just adopt ZFS already instead of wasting effort on something that will take time to develop only to match feature parity that already exists now.

>>57809680
You can't get a clear answer because unless you're running a file server or have some other highly particular use case it hardly matters enough to deviate from the common options (read: ext4).

>>57811641
>it hardly matters enough to deviate
I feel like with things such as snapshots these can be handled automatically by the OS and have some simplified front end, which is still useful for end users but not something they directly deal with. Kind of like how Windows does "restore points" but much better than that. I know there was something like that for Solaris years ago and that seems like something any desktop system should have, which is made much easier with filesystems that support it.

>>57811669

>>57811722
It makes me smile when I see it. Not sure if its funny (american definition of "funny" is saying its funny but not actually laughing or smiling)

If you use ext4, make sure to use less reserved blocks. By default it uses 5%.

FreeBSD is always superior.

>>57813354
In the real world, hardware support and software availability matters.

Sure, run FreeBSD on servers, but on a personal machine, I'd like my USB devices to fucking work, and actually run software without setting up linux emulation and compiling all dependencies.

>>57809903
...how else is he gonna screenshot the installer?

>>57813675
99% of hardware (even USB crap) which I use work nice with FreeBSD, same with software most work fine without linux compatibility layer.

ext4 for everything else

If you are using anything else on a Desktop Linux install you are just ricing

Is anyone else reaping the huge benefits with the ladies that comes with ZFS usage? Because I’m swimming in it over here.

Btrfs. Been using that for four years and haven't encountered a single issue yet.

Wish I could use it to raid5 though. According to the btrfs wiki the implementation isn't safe to use.

>>57813958

ext4 on both my boot drive and on top of my RAID

ext4 because I have no particular data recovery needs and I'm not a contrarian shit head.

Btrfs for /, xfs for /home or go for ext4 for everything as everyone sane would recommend.

Ext4 since xfs partitions can only be grown, not shrunken.

BTrfs is useless to me for the most part since I already use LVM and LVM gives me all the same hip cool features like CoW snapshots.

>>57815788
That's suseish. They only reason they use btrfs for reverting packages if something messed up.
