Because you are NOT compressing the file only compressing the blocks as
they get written to disk.

How can this work? With compressed data, its hard to predict its
final size before compression.
Because you are NOT compressing the file only compressing the blocks as

I guess this implies that the compression only can save integral numbers of

ZFS does NOT compress files.
Hi,

And, what happens exactly when a portion of a compressed
