| Still, I'm curious -- why lots of pools?  Administration would be
| simpler with a single pool containing many filesystems.

 The short answer is that it is politically and administratively easier
to use (at least) one pool per storage-buying group in our environment.
This got discussed in more detail in the 'How many ZFS pools is it
sensible to use on a single server' zfs-discuss thread I started earlier
this month[*].

(Trying to answer the question myself is the reason I wound up setting
up 132 pools on my test system and discovering this issue.)
