As has already been pointed out, XFS can't be shrunk. However, it is mature, scalable, and stable. I've been using it as the default FS on all of our servers for 7-8 years. (We are mostly a SLES shop).<br>
I'm just now starting to do some testing with BtrFS, but we don't have it in production yet. I was on the SLES 12 beta team, so got plenty of lead time to experiment with it...<br>

<div><div><br>
Guys,<br>
<br>
I have notices that both openSUSE and CentOS 7 have move away from ext4 as the default filesystem to XFS, any reason why?<br>
<br>
What does XFS give that ext4 doesn't?<br>
