Re: New BSD Installer

If you're mirroring the disk with gmirror, how are you dual-booting the disk? This discussion is about using gmirror to mirror two entire disks, and then use GPT to partition the mirror device. Dual-booting has no bearing on that, as gmirror is a FreeBSD-only technology. Cheers, Freddie Cash

Re: zfs arc and amount of wired memory

. This makes zfs only useful in cases where you need to store something on a couple+ of terabytes, still having OS on ufs. Occam's razor and so on. Or, you plug a USB stick into the back (or even inside the case as a lot of mobos have internal USB connectors now) and use that for swap. -- Freddie

you time, effort, and grief in the long run. :) Whether that means using a separate UFS / filesystem, or a mirrored set of disks for /, or a separate ZFS pool with a single mirror vdev is up to the admin. But boot/OS should be separate from bulk storage. :) -- Freddie Cash fjwc...@gmail.com

Re: Benchmark (Phoronix): FreeBSD 9.0-RC2 vs. Oracle Linux 6.1 Server

FUSE (ad far as I know), it is legitimate to compare ZFS and ext4. It would be much more competetive to compare Linux BTRFS and FreeBSD ZFS. There is a separate kernel module for ZFS that can be installed, giving you proper kernel-level support for ZFS on Linux. -- Freddie Cash fjwc...@gmail.com
