In my opinion, the project should also include an effort in getting LZO
into ZFS. As an advanced fast but efficient variant.

For that matter, if it were up to me, there should be an effort in
modularizing the ZFS compression algorithms into loadable kernel modules,
also allowing easy addition of algorithms. I suppose the same should apply
to other components where possible, e.g. the spacemap allocator discussed
on this list. But I'm a mere C# coder, so I can't really help with that.
