I know you said you wanted to stay with ext4, but going to zfs reduced

Honestly, at this point I would not run any storage I cared about on
anything but zfs. There are just so many benefits.
I'll definitely put zfs on my list of things to play with. I've been
a little reluctant in the past because it wasn't natively supported. I
don't use an initrd (or modules in general). So, using a filesystem
that isn't supported in-tree sounded like too much work.

If zfs file system is superior to ext4 and it seems to it is.
Why hasn't it been adopted more widely in Linux?
