В обсуждении на похорониксе наткнулся прямо на маленький монументальный пост от автора ext2/3/4 fs.
https://www.phoronix.com/forums/forum/phoronix/latest-phoronix-articles/1520191-bcachefs-changes-merged-without-issue-for-the-linux-6-14-kernel?p=1520399#post1520399
Из него следует, что самая-самая свободная fs развивается по сути, по требованиям корпораций, и за деньги корпораций:
"Ext4 does get some new features, but they are ones which companies are willing to fund because the return on investment of developing the feature makes sense from a cost/benefit perspective"
Это, конечно, в пику любителям #GPL, как оружия против жадных корпов.
Ну и вообще, там полно перлов
"This might sound horribly corporate, but there's a story about how the ZFS engineers started the project on the down lo, without asking permission from management or getting input from sales, and presented Sun with what was effectively a fiat accompli. Which might sound great,until you reflect that Sun ended up losing money until they had to sell themselves to another company, and effectively there is no longer much of an engineering organization supporting ZFS"
"The answer I came up with was around 100 person years worth of effort, with one low-end estimate of 50 person years, and a high-end estimate of 200 person-years (but that was for GPFS, which was a cluster file system, and so a lot more complicated). I reported this findings to the meeting, and a certain senior engineer from Intel said, "No, don't tell the manager's that because they will never approve the project! Tell them that btrfs will be ready in 18 months." I'll let people decide when btrfs hit that "enterprise ready status", especially for those sexy new advanced features that were supposed to compete with ZFS, but I don't think it's controversial that it wasn't in 18 months"
