# This plugin defragments rpm files after update.
#
# If the filesystem is btrfs, run defrag command in /var/lib/rpm, set the
# desired extent size to 64MiB, but this may change in the result depending
# on the fragmentation of the free space
#
# Why 64MB:
# - the worst fragmentation has been observed on Packages
# - this can grow up to several hundred of megabytes
# - the file gets updated at random places
# - although the file will be composed of several extents, it's faster to
#   merge only the extents that affect some portions of the file, instead
#   of the whole file; the difference is negligible
# - due to the free space fragmentation over time, it's hard to find
#   contiguous space, the bigger the extent is, the worse and the extent
#   size hint is not reached anyway
