I would guess they have to get 'clean' IPs too. Simply moving the IP to a different server likely is not sufficient. Netflix also filters the common ASes, so you need to shuffle between exotic/new blocks Even the TTL on a.dns

We always over-provision any way, but with ZFS the overage is a requirement for any reasonable performance. With XFS, you can get away with 90-95% full; yes, there's degraded performance but nothing like the 10 IOPS you get from ZFS.

ZFS pool IO performance drops like a rock off a very tall cliff once the pool is in the 80%+ full range. So for every TB of usable pool space, you need to over-provision by 200-300GB. This is with current gene enterprise SSDs mind you. Eve
