ZFS is cool. But there are a lot of issues and stuff that needs to be tuned but is difficult to find out if it needs to be tuned. Especially, if you run into performance-problems. Once you have some experience with it, I recommend reading this blog: http://nex7.blogspot.ch and of course, the FreeNAS forum, where you can read about stuff like that: https://bugs.freenas.org/issues/1531 On the surface, ZFS is great. But god help you if you run into problems. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
