Yes, they do. It's the same as an empty (never written) block. They don't store the zeroes, an unmapped block returns zeroes on read. If you have trim bugs, all the more reason to use this instead. A large block/record size will probably help too. ------------------------------------------- smartos-discuss Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/184463/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/184463/25769125-55cfbc00 Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=25769125&id_secret=25769125-7688e9fb Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
