Question about ZFS support
Good morning/afternoon/evening, I have a question to FreeBSD developers: Are you planning to include support for ZFS(link below) into FreeBSD in any future releases? http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/docs/ Best regards, Vasiliy Khodyrev ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Question about ZFS support
Are you planning to include support for ZFS(link below) into FreeBSD in any future releases? http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/docs/ while i'm not FreeBSD coder i would ask question - how does it REALLY work - contrary to information. i mean how it works in practice. IMHO checksumming every data (not just metadata) is nonsense if it cannot be turned off. this makes every transfer not just I/O bound but CPU and memory transfer/cache bound too. while disk and memory bandwidth in todays machines are quite comparable (memory is faster but not THAT faster than linear disk I/O) it isn't just a little thing. built in compression isn't good idea IMHO - of course it doesn't hurt if it's optional. today disk space is rarely a problem, while huge files are often not much compressible. by general description filesystem looks very nice. thats theory - did anyone made a real test on real system? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
