I have a 13GB text file. I turned ZFS compression on with "zfs set compression=on mypool". When i copy the 13GB file into another file, it does not get compressed (checking via du -sh). However if i set compression=gzip, then the file gets compressed.
Is there a limit on file size with the default compression algorithm? I did experiment with a much smaller file of 0.5GB with the default compression and it did get compressed. I am using S10 U8 x86/64.
