Hi,
I've just started using ZFS + NFS, and i was wondering if there is
anything i can do to optimise it for being used as a mailstore ? (
small files, lots of them, with lots of directory's and high
concurrent access )
So any ideas guys?

the maildirs are accessed directly by some programs for certain
things.
for small file workloads, setting recordsize to a value lower
