From c6887cd11149d7325328749f06719071e6c725c6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Josef Bacik Date: Fri, 25 Mar 2016 13:26:00 -0400 Subject: Btrfs: don't do nocow check unless we have to Before we write into prealloc/nocow space we have to make sure that there are no references to the extents we are writing into, which means checking the extent tree and csum tree in the case of nocow. So we don't want to do the nocow dance unless we can't reserve data space, since it's a serious drag on performance. With the following sequence fallocate -l10737418240 /mnt/btrfs-test/file cp --reflink /mnt/btrfs-test/file /mnt/btrfs-test/link fio --name=randwrite --rw=randwrite --bs=4k --filename=/mnt/btrfs-test/file \ --end_fsync=1 we get the worst case scenario where we have to fall back on to doing the check anyway.
