I'd like copy-on-write hardlinks, or deduplicated blocks, that are made automatically on a schedule as to not incur the constant overhead of dedup, but still reap some of the benefits for archival.
- Freaky 3y agoReflinks are basically CoW hardlinks — supported on Linux by btrfs, XFS, and I've seen some effort to bring it to ZFS. DragonFlyBSD's HAMMER filesystem supports on-demand/scheduled dedup using the hammer(8) command, with configurable memory and runtime limits.
