The Great Linux Filesystem War

All of the major filesystems are undergone some major changed since January 2024 and I wanted to check to see how these changes have impacted performance. In this video I am comparing five linux file systems: bcacheFS, btrfs, Ext4, Stratis and XFS. I was going to include ZFS, but the results were so fast that it clearly indicated it was using memory. Tried everything I could think of including systemd, ulimit, intent logs on SSD, and even trying to use a file 2X the size of physical memory, none of which worked, and in some cases ZFS improved its performance numbers.
