Dne 24.3.2017 v 03:29 Michael McCarthy napsal(a):
I appreciate the insight. Are there any plans to enhance the code to allow
more parallel execution and/or allow users to experiment with QD?


Nope there are no plans to enhance old snapshot target - it would essentially means to write completely new version of it - as the metadata format is in general not enhancable.

Also you should be aware the whole development is focused on thin-provisioning, where all this snapshotting & merging as way more efficient.

So old-snapshot should be used in couple 'corner' cases where it does make
sense and user eventually need to pay penalty in terms of performance and
if user needs 'speed' he should look at thin provisioning, where he also automatically get things like snapshot of snapshots and so on....
