This would be an idea and I thought about this. However I see the following 
problems: 

1) using deduplication

This will reduce the on disk size however the DDT will grow forever and for the 
deletion of zvols this will mean a lot of time and work (see other threads 
regarding DDT memory issues on the list)

2) compression

AS I understand it - if I do zfs send/receive (which we do for DR) data is 
grown to the original size again on the wire. This makes it difficult. 

Regards, 
Robert
