Btrfs is a new copy on write (CoW) filesystem for Linux aimed at implementing advanced features while focusing on fault
tolerance, repair, and administration.
WARNING! ext4 file system has a delayed allocation mechanism. Hence, the behavior of
writing files to disk is different from ext3. Unlike ext3, the ext4 file system does not write data
to disk on committing the transaction, so it takes longer for the data to be written to the disk. Your
program must use data integrity calls such as fsync() to ensure that data is written to the disk.
See the comments in the package configuration file template for more information.
