>On the other side, ZFS is an overly complicated behemoth, that wants direct access to the block device. Meanwhile `muxfs` works with any already existing file-system (local or remote) and just provides the checksums. So both serve different use-cases. Na...it's not overly complicated for what it is, but yes it is a behemoth. >that wants direct access to the block device. Yes for high-performance "enterprise"-setup's it is preferable, but absolutely not needed. > Meanwhile `muxfs` works with any already existing file-system (local or remote) and just provides the checksums. That i think is the winning point here, just add bit-rot protection to ffs.
