OK I have a very large zfs snapshot I want to destroy. When I do this, the system nearly freezes during the zfs destroy. This is a Sun Fire X4600 with 128GB of memory. Now this may be more of a function of the IO device, but let's say I don't care that this zfs destroy finishes quickly. I actually don't care, as long as it finishes before I run out of disk space.
So a suggestion for room for growth for the zfs suite is the ability to lazily destroy snapshots, such that the destroy goes to sleep if the cpu idle time falls under a certain percentage. How doable is that? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
