Hey, I've been following this thread with some interest. I just wanted |
| 14 |
to note that you guys might like to subscribe to Sun's ZFS-discuss list |
| 15 |
and possibly Storage-discuss. The guys on there really are hard-disk |
| 16 |
gurus and some of the things they talk about are miles over my head. |
| 17 |

It's just interesting as ZFS is supposedly (and I believe it) THE |
| 19 |
filesystem when it comes to combating fragmentation. Maybe reading over |
| 20 |
what those guys chat about would be interesting to some folks from this |
| 21 |
thread. |

In fact, the guys over at Sun are so hot on fighting fragmentation, |
| 24 |
they're already looking at some really advanced things like low level |
| 25 |
algorithms for deduplication and some other things that scare me and |
| 26 |
make me want to take a hot shower :P |
