I think the footprint of ZFS is mostly a matter of what features you're using and how much you're scaling out. e.g., each additional filesystem requires some memory, dedup requires more memory, etc. I have in the past had problems with the ARC getting too large and causing allocation failures on a 4 GB system, but that was a fileserver with a few hundred filesystems and a heavy I/O load. _______________________________________________ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
