So Jonathan, you have a concern about the on-disk space
efficiency for small file (more or less subsector). It is a
problem that we can throw rust at. I am not sure if this is
the basis of Claude's concern though.
Creating small files, last week I did a small test. With ZFS
I can create 4600
Sorry to insist but I am not aware of a small file problem
with ZFS (which doesn't mean there isn't one, nor that we
agree on definition of 'problem'). So if anyone has data on
this topic, I'm interested.
Also note, ZFS does a lot more than VxFS.

Hello Roch,

what's the minimum allocation size for a file in zfs? I get 1024B by
my calculation (1 x 512B block allocation (minimum) + 1 x 512B inode/
znode allocation) since we never pack file data in the inode/znode.
Is this a problem? Only if you're trying to pack a lot files small
