      Since it is BTRFS, even though GNU yes is working at the glorious 3GiB/s speed, disk is only slowly filling up. In the last 15 minutes, 25 whole gigabytes were wasted.

      10 GiB has been filled on the host disk since it goes BTRFS -> QCOW -> BTRFS and all of that has compression individually.

      Host now constantly thermal throttles due to 3 instances of disk compression running in parallel under full blast.

      glorious

        It’s been 22 minutes and disk utilization is 35GiB

        size of the file no is 865.2 GiB

        my host fs will need a good scrub after this

          UPDATE

          your command was interrupted by sudo shutdown +60 set up an hour ago by @PinkiePieYay2707@pawb.social

          It reached a maximum of 60GiB disk utilization. Size of the file no is 2.6 TB

          Modern linux filesystems are amazing
