--- Comment #9 from Dave Gordon <dg32...@zoho.eu> --- (In reply to Rui DeSousa from comment #6) In your example: $ rsync -av --inplace 000000010000005E00000017 arch/000000010000005E00000017 sending incremental file list 000000010000005E00000017 sent 67,125,370 bytes received 35 bytes 8,950,054.00 bytes/sec total size is 67,108,864 speedup is 1.00 $ ls -lh arch/000000010000005E00000017 -rw------- 1 postgres postgres 64M Mar 5 16:02 arch/000000010000005E00000017 $ du -h arch/000000010000005E00000017 362K arch/000000010000005E00000017 how much of the source file is non-sparse? 'Cos ZFS can "sparsify" a file if it detects that you've got big chunks of zeros. For that matter, if you've got dedup enabled, it should be able to detect any repeated pattern that's block-sized and -aligned. That might let you create files that go over quota, since they're not really using very much space. In your dd(1) example, do you get a different result if you source /dev/zero rather than /dev/(u)random? .Dave. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
