Then again, if you'd like a more authoritative answer, you might just go ask the Linux kernel development list, "Why don't you guys use ZFS?" And Linus might reply with some overly generalized derogatory statements intermingled with cuss words and unnecessary offenses, such as he does when talking about git vs svn, or ext3 (dump) vs ... having no backups, er something ... he never offered any suggestion on anything to use aside from dump after ripping dump apart. And then people will act like God spoke to them, and many stones will be carved. People who are looking for answers will get bad answers and further confusion, and people who just know enough to follow unquestioningly will become minions and activists, and people who are truly experts will keep their thoughts silent, and slowly randomly perform a little bit of damage control before moving on. Heheheh BTW, I had the pleasure of listening to Linus talk about (aka unintelligently rant about) svn. And it was absolutely worthless except for entertainment. Quite a religious person, no doubt about that. Good luck getting him to help ZFS into the kernel. ;-) _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
