    can’t you change the compression algorithm, or its compression level?

    but yeah it would be much better if we could set it on a per-file basis, and also on demand so that it can compress/decompress a file in place

      i tried many different algorithms at the time, but it didn’t really matter. my laptop would always, eventually, lag and get pretty hot and I would check the task manager and sure enough there were the btrfs compression proccesses hogging the cpu
