The more we all use ZFS, the better. I truly hope ZFS on Linux keeps up the momentum it has, because it will increase the value of the overall ZFS knowledge base (like this post).
For more interesting topics by Mr. Bruning, I encourage you to look through the past "Bruning Questions" posts: https://www.google.com/search?q=bruning+questions+site:joyent.com&nfpr=1 https://www.google.com/search?q=bruning+questions+site:joyen...
- BrainInAJar 13y ago> it will increase the value of the overall ZFS knowledge base (like this post). Joyent uses ZFS on illumos exclusively. Not Linux
- res0nat0r 13y agoZFS is now available on Linux via FUSE actually.
- dagw 13y agoHow does that compare, performance wise, to a 'real' ZFS implementation like on Solaris or FreeBSD?
- res0nat0r 13y agoHonestly I can't say. I've only done basic tinkering on Linux to see if the basic functionality works...sorry.
- roto 13y agoThe fuse one is not terribly fast, as expected. I think this is what you're really looking for: http://zfsonlinux.org/ http://zfsonlinux.org/ Basically the standard ZFS driver with a shim for the kernel.
- StavrosK 13y agoI use that and it has been amazing so far.
- insaneirish 13y agoI'm aware of Joyent's ZFS use on illumos and not Linux. What I meant is that ZFS on Linux has the chance to make ZFS become even more popular than it is already on illumos, FreeBSD, and Oracle platforms.
