Not sure what you mean here. They showed that ZFS performed well on linux. Are you saying that ZFS performs poorly on BSD and Solaris? Love me some ZFS and it

Love me some ZFS and it works well pretty much everywhere. OpenZFS shows good promise of keeping (bringing) the BSD, Illumos and Linux versions in line with each other.
- protomyth 10y ago> Are you saying that ZFS performs poorly on BSD and Solaris? I think LeoPanthera is saying it performs better on BSD (well FreeBSD) and Solaris (well Illumos-based in particular).
- ryao 10y agoClusterHQ's tests were unable to detect a difference between the platforms, with the exception of SELinux where performance was degraded unless xattr=sa was set. The code bases are almost identical, so performance differences tend to be caused by external factors and/or compatibility shims. There are also cases where one platform has a performance improvement before the others because the releases and porting are not done in lock step.
- tete 10y agoAnother reason is that ZFS is tightly integrated with other things (for example jails and zones) on those systems, having switches related to other parts. I don't think that it is quiet there yet on Linux, even though I am sure that will come.
