            As Jussi said, partitioning disks on a ZFS only system is
            uncommon.

            Splitting an SSD between log and cache generally isn't a
            very performant option.  Devices that make good cache
            devices may not be good logs.  With SmartOS running KVM,
            there is a big gain from log devices, but not much from a
            cache.

        On this subject:

        What is the current thinking on the need to mirror slog and/or
        L2ARC devices?


    There never has been any need to mirror L2ARC device, you might
    get a small performance gain reading from a mirror. Now logs are
    recoverable, there is little benefit from mirroring log devices.


    Cheers,
    Ian.


Logs are now recoverable?  This is news to me!  Is this only in Illumos ZFS, or is it available in OpenZFS on Linux as well?


Typo!  s/recoverable/removable/

Cheers,

Ian.
