FUSE can do things to accellerate bulk read/write, but metadata-intensive operations will (I suspect) always be slow. I also question whether the FUSE implementation will have the safety that has always been the Raison d'être of ZFS. Have you or the ZFS/FUSE developers done tests where you are writing to the filesystem, and then someone pulls the plug on the fileserver while ZFS is writing? Does the filesystem recovery cleanly from such a scenario? - Ted -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
