Hi,

regarding ZFS compression method: what happens when a compressed file is udpated/appended? Is it ALL un-compressed first, updated/appended and then re-compressed? Or only the affected blocks are uncompressed and then recompressed?

And, what happens exactly when a portion of a compressed file is to be read: the whole file or only a portion is read and uncompressed?


Thank you in advance


Leonardo
