I upgraded the system to Ubuntu 16.04, kernel downgraded to 4.4.0-28-generic ( I wanted to use Cgroup Namespaces ) 
BTRFS quotas looks to work properly , system is stable .

Thanks for the information but it dosen't work for me with btrfs 

It correctly set the value on btrfs limit but no changes inside the container 

lxc config device set benltsp root size 10GB 

btrfs qg show -r -e /var/lib/lxd/containers/ -p -c|grep 443 
0/443 9.01GiB 8.74GiB 10.00GiB 10.00GiB --- --- 

lxc config show benltsp 
[...] 
root: 
path: / 
size: 10GB 
type: disk 

lxc stop benltsp && lxc start benltsp 


lxc exec benltsp -- df -h 
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on 
/dev/sdb 100G 18G 80G 18% /

lxc config device set my-container root size 20GB 

Works with ZFS and BTFS

Yes, I have to idea in mind. 

1- Using ZFS 
I have to try how it looks with LXD/LXC. I wanted to give a try to btrfs . 
With ZFS , are you using quotas ? Can you tell me what "df -h" looks into your container ? 
With btrfs , the container see the disk size of the host, so you don't know how much space you are using, it's was not the best anyways. 

2- LVM 
A the beginning, it's the solution I was using. Finally it was not that bad. 
By a script to create containers, I was doing : 
- Create a new LVM Volume 
- Mount the volume 
- Install the container with "dir path" 

So in the container you have one disk, it's the full size of the volume and act like a real disk including volume size information 

Cordialement,

Hmmm that doesn't sound prommising then :'( 

Anyway for my local server I use ZFS on Linux (Ubuntu 16.04). Maybe 
that's something for you too? 
I don't use ZFS on my VPS, cause it doesn't have enough RAM (just 1GB) 

Cheers,
