Hi Strange indeed....
There is a better command to use;
btrfs fi usage /
Do you have the btrfs balance script running as a weekly cron job? /usr/share/btrfsmaintenance/btrfs-balance.sh script
It's present in SLE 12, but not in my openSUSE 13.2...
I manually ran and recovered a couple of GB on my system under 'allocated'.
So, I would try a before and after;
btrfs fi usage / /usr/share/btrfsmaintenance/btrfs-balance.sh btrfs fi usage /
I did as you suggest and appear to have gained ~2%. Minimal, but appreciated. I failed to memtion that the drive is ssd and about 4 years old although it may be as much as 5 years. I wonder if the ssd drive is aging. I haven't had any indications from smartdrive ??? === START OF INFORMATION SECTION === Model Family: Intel 510 Series SSDs Device Model: INTEL SSDSC2MH120A2 Serial Number: LNEL107600VA120CGN LU WWN Device Id: 0 150735 1ee66a327 Firmware Version: PPG2 User Capacity: 120,034,123,776 bytes [120 GB] Sector Size: 512 bytes logical/physical Rotation Rate: Solid State Device Device is: In smartctl database [for details use: -P show] ATA Version is: ATA8-ACS T13/1699-D revision 2d SATA Version is: SATA 3.0, 6.0 Gb/s Local Time is: Fri Apr 24 20:23:45 2015 EDT SMART support is: Available - device has SMART capability.
