Speaking of next generation filesystems

There is quite a bit to read recently about some new filesystems:

• Btrfs 0.16, Improved Scalability And Performance - Btrfs 0.16 was released on August 5, 2008. I haven’t tested Btrfs but I have noticed that the project has a lot more momentum than other filesystem projects. Hopefully they’ll stay on track for a 1.0 release before the end of 2008.
• Comparing HAMMER And Tux3 - A long and very technical discussion between the HAMMER and Tux3 filesystem creators. It’s well worth a read to understand what the latest and greatest ideas in filesystems are. Tux3 is another filesystem I’m paying attention to as long as there is test code released in the not too distant future.
• Tux3 Hierarchical Structure - More details on the Tux3 filesystem.
