Short question:
I'm curious as to how ZFS manages space (free and used) and how
its usage interacts with thin provisioning provided by HDS
arrays. Is there any effort to minimize the number of provisioned
disk blocks that get writes so as to not negate any space
benefits that thin provisioning

sense that you're asking about using already-written space, rather than
to go off into virgin sectors
