Comment # 85 on bug 1063638 from
here is some discussion about btrfs-balance:

https://github.com/firehol/netdata/issues/3203

btrfs-balance is very intensive operation and it's completely situational ..
doing that at weekly basis as generic default for everybody who has btrfs is
utterly and painfully wrong !!!

moreover, in this scope I can realize that it also significantly increases
harddrive utilization decreasing the hardrive lifetime, making softerrors just
killers and triggering not healthy drives to fail earlier and suddenly

in the other words, this hammer-style generic default is wrong and insane ..
it's human-factor bug .. I wonder how it could sneak into the distro ..

let's please find another solution to this ..

regards, daniel
