Kand does not cause performance issues there
Kso it's likely something specific to you two
The has a threadripper lol
RI didn't know the sd card on steam deck used btrfs
Rthat's confusing then yea, ig ill keep diagnosing
Kit does if you use steamos-btrfs
Kwhich we ship
Rby default?
Kyes
Rgotcha
KFedora itself defaults to btrfs, so we do too
Kno EXT4
Twhat device are you using bazzite on?
Tim guessing desktop
DYep
Di'll try running it again, the external hdd is not connected
Dwell a good sign is that it's no longer using 100% cpu like it was before
Rhuge
Dmore like 60% with some spikes (although in top it says 470%)
Thow is performance?
Dlemme open a game
Tyeah that would be the true test
Ddesktop performance is not noticeably worse than when it's not running tho
Tif it's related to btrfs + HDD then i think we'll have to recommend HDDs to be formatted to ext4 from now on
Tdecent timing because im about to finish the documentation for automounting secondary drives finally
Rtime to unplug my HDD to try lmao
Tyeah that would be helpful
Tif either of you report performance issues with the HDD unplugged/unmounted still let us know
Dit's by no means unbearable, but bg3 seems to be running at around half the usual framerate
Tok that's a little bit better, if the test takes a long time though
Tthen that's an issue
Dseems like cpu is becoming the bottleneck because it's at 99% and the game is only using 40-50% of my gpu
Tonly during the test? is the test still running
Tnot test
Tthe service
Dduring the test yeah
Dwith btrfs-dedup service
Tyea
Dbut now it's back to normal performance
Thow long does it take?
Tok
Dafter 7min running
Tdid you stop it manually
Dnope
Tokay that sounds better than the "1 hour" ive heard previously
Tso i could be 100% wrong
Dyeah definitely
Di was the 1 hour person
Tbut im taking a guess that a HDD mounted with btrfs is causing it to run much longer
