Re: pefs not working

[Chris Watson]

Pefs is in ports under security I believe. Gleb wrote it several years ago. I 
don't know if he is maintaining it or someone else now but a quick look at the 
Makefile for it in ports should tell you who to bug about you're problem.

Re: zfs, a directory that used to hold lot of files and listing pause

[Chris Watson]

While I have yet to encounter this with PG on ZFS, knock on wood, this 
obviously is not an isolated issue and if possible those experiencing it should 
do as much investigation as possible and open a PR. This seems like something 
I'm going to read about FreeBSD and PG/ZFS over at Hacker News from a Linux 
switcher as they explain why they went back to Linux in the future. It's not a 
show stopper but it's obviously an issue.
