btrfs requires far too much maintenance to be a good general-purpose FS, and it absolutely crumbles under certain not-too-uncommon use cases (specifically, databases and VMs). I really wanted to like btrfs and used it extensively over the last couple of years, but I've finally given up and moved on to ZFS, and I'm grateful that I did. Give it a try.
