Yep. Dedup is on. A zpool list shows a 1.50x dedup ratio. I was imagining that 
the large ratio was tied to that particular snapshot.

basie@/root# zpool list pool1
NAME    SIZE  ALLOC   FREE    CAP  DEDUP  HEALTH  ALTROOT
pool1  2.72T  1.55T  1.17T    57%  1.50x  ONLINE  -

So, it is possible to turn dedup off? More importantly, what happens when I try?

Thanks
