Ted Ts'o sent out the EXT4 updates today for Linux 6.11. He explained in that pull request:

"Many cleanups and bug fixes in ext4, especially for the fast commit feature. Also some performance improvements; in particular, improving IOPS and throughput on fast devices running Async Direct I/O by up to 20% by optimizing jbd2_transaction_committed()."

Oh that's hugely different then. It was not apparent that you were using this setup since the initial blog post. Maybe make a note at the top of the post, so your message (like here) is understood. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the clear information you give here and your feedback on how this works. From your report and given its the default FS for Fedora, its absolutely clear that I need to review my bias and view as BTRFS as a contender for my next system drive.

I had intended that the dates on the edits would have suggested otherwise (the last was 20230422), but I also get how easy it is to miss them if you're looking for something specific. I can't change the publication datestamp because that's part of the slug, and it would break links both internal and any that are external.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
