bees
Bees is a deduplication agent tailored for large btrfs filesystems, offering efficient offline deduplication and incremental data scanning to reduce disk usage time. It features space-efficient hashing, support for btrfs compression, and the ability to handle live data without causing downtime. Bees utilizes a persistent hash table for speedy restarts, albeit requiring root access and lacking file filtering capabilities. It's an effective choice for optimizing storage across entire filesystems, including snapshots, in btrfs environments.
