Linux Filesystem of the Year
 
A new category last year that ended up with fairly lopsided results. Based on feedback it may be rotated out next year.

Went with btrfs here, even though I also use Ext4, I made great experience with btrfs and it supports Snapper backups, which is another plus for me, being on openSUSE.

My needs are simple. Voted ext3. But on my non trim supported ssd atom netbook.

I roll with ext2 with no /swap partition.

Voted ext4, but going to try btrfs one of these days.

You should. I am aware of the fact, that it had received some bad reviews in the past, but I had absolutely no problems with it. Basically I decided to give it ago, since I use openSUSE, which comes with Snapper for backups and Snapper requires Btrfs. I have however my /home formatted in Ext4, since I don't need it snapshot.

Not noticing any performance increase, but Btrfs appears pretty robust and performing well for like one year now.

btrfs, because of transparent compression

I voted XFS because at work have several NAS over 16 TB
ZFS i great too but RAIDZ is not growable as easy as growing RAID with mdadm tools.

Missing ReiserFS in the list :-( Its still working fine here...

jeremy 01-05-2017 10:55 AM

Reiser4 is the most recent release and has been included in the category from the beginning.

ReiserFS (which is Reiser3) is quite a bit different than Reiser4 isn't it?

weirdwolf 01-12-2017 08:36 AM

ext4. Would like to try XFS on my ssds, can't get it to boot through. Probably just me I'm guessing.

FredGSanford 01-12-2017 04:18 PM

ext4 for me...maybe I need to try a different one sometime!

Formated my HDD with LUKS encrypted Btrfs. Used it for months, since I had not the time to change it, but I never had such a slow system in my life before.

Came back to ext4, which in my search is actually the fastest filesystem nowadays, and became a happy Linux user again!
