                          How to reclaim unused space from each chunk used by BTRFS filesystem?  

Let's say there are lots of chunks partially used from 10% to 50% utilised per chunk, how do I defragment those so that the 90% to 50% of free space per chunk is reclaimed?

If possible this would also compact the data.
