I agree, snapshots are amazing for / on a linux machine. Makes backups actually work right, and be very inexpensive (computationally). But, the tooling is still rather new and untested. At work we are still stamping out upstream bugs that really shouldn't exist, but the ecosystem is certainly getting better. It's only been a couple years since the ZFS on Linux project has gotten remotely any uptake by the distro folks, and even now that interest is rather tepid due to the licensing issues. If ZFS was GPL I think it would have been the default filesystem on Linux for quite some time now.
