The work done at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory on porting ZFS
as a kernel module is quite advanced and in my opinion it will go
mainstream well before btrfs, even though there are great reticences, of
the type NIH, in the Linux world (Linux as a kernel which really
is). Anyway, I'm already using it in a massive production environment
(30K systems and growing; this is my daily bragging rights consumed).
This is interesting!
I hear a lot of people that discarded Solaris talk positively about
FreeBSD because it already has ZFS and Linux have not. I had the
impression the project was on a side track and that all the Linux people
put theirs chips on brtfs. Good to be wrong, I really miss the ZFS
experience (with the exception of the binary magic in /etc) when working
on Linux.
