btrfsbuilder

Heyho!

With the idea of btrfsbuilder I just downloaded the source of pbuilder and 
cowdancer to see how easy this would be.  On a sudden inspiration I thought 
that I'm probably not the first to think of this ...

http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~adrfried/btrfsbuilder

Do others have experiences with btrfsbuilder?  Are there plans to integrate 
it with pbuilder directly?  Current issues / obvious improvements etc?

On a first try, it works, but integration with eatmydata is highly 
desirably, as the many fsync() calls from dpkg hurt performance in btrfs a 
lot more than in ext3.

cheers
