Any ideas of what happened? It sounds like btrfs specific behaviour. It would be interesting to know what kernel version and btrfs version you were using, if only to confirm my suspicion that even the versions in Debian are not suitable for use in production. I'm going to guess that it was a series of 'btrfs balance' commands that fixed things for you. -- Jonathan Dowland Please do not CC me, I am subscribed to the list.
