NoCOW for btrfs

			=== Btrfs ===
			Torrent software download random chunks of files and write them to files. This causes a lot of fragmentation on COW filesystems.

			To prevent COW on transmission download folder, use<syntaxhighlight lang="console">
			# chattr -R -C /var/lib/transmission-daemon/downloads/
	</syntaxhighlight>		</syntaxhighlight>

			== Backup ==
			Transmission is capable of downloading a ton of data. It is likely to cause issues with your backup system.

			As data downloaded by transmission is usually quite easy to re-download in case of a data loss, I recommend just excluding transmission folder from backups.

			Assuming you are on a [[Btrfs]] filesystem an use [[btrbk]] for backup, this is as easy as<syntaxhighlight lang="console">
			# service transmission-daemon stop
			# mv /var/lib/transmission-daemon/ /var/lib#/transmission-daemon-tmp
			# btrfs subvolume create /var/lib/transmission-daemon
			Create subvolume '/var/lib/transmission-daemon'
			# shopt -s dotglob
			# cp -a --reflink=auto /var/lib/transmission-daemon-tmp/* /var/lib/transmission-daemon/
			# rm -rf /var/lib/transmission-daemon-tmp/
			</syntaxhighlight>
