Hi, This thread refers to Solaris 10, but it was suggested that I post it here as ZFS developers may well be more likely to respond.
http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5438393&messageID=10986502#10986502 Basically after about ZFS 1000 filesystem creations the creation time slows down to around 4 seconds, and gets progressively worse. This is not the case for normal mkdir which creates thousands of directories very quickly. I wanted users home directories (60,000 of them) all to be individual ZFS file systems, but there seems to be a bug/limitation due to the prohibitive creation time. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
