Put artificial limits in place to prevent users from killing themselves? How did that go Jeff? "I suggest that you retire to the safety of the rubber room while the rest of us enjoy these zfs features. By the same measures, you would advocate that people should never be allowed to go outside due to the wide open spaces. Perhaps people will wander outside their homes and forget how to make it back. Or perhaps there will be gravity failure and some of the people outside will be lost in space." It's NEVER a good idea to put a default limitation in place to protect a *regular user*. If they can't RTFM from front cover to back they don't deserve to use a computer. --Tim
