Hi, I'm atmost ready to deploy my new homeserver for final testing. Before I want to be sure that nothing big is left untouched. Reading ZFS Admin Guide About the checksum method, there's no advice about it. The default is fletcher4. there's also SHA256 Now the sha256 is pretty 'heavy' to calculate, so I think that it's left out because can impact the performance in some significative way. right ?
Is SHA256 a good step-up to guarantee 'correct data' over fletcher4, or it's only marginally better in real life ? I've a C2D 2.8GHz with 4GB, on Gb Eth, is it capable to handler sha256 easy ? thanks. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
