I was talking about a write cache (slog/zil I suppose). This is just a media server for home. The idea is when I copy an HD video from my camera to the network drive it is always several GBs. So if it could copy the file to the SSD first and then have it slowly copy to the normal HDs that would be very good since it would essentially saturate the GigE network.
Having a read cache for me is not useful, because all the files are huge and you can't really predict which one someone will watch. I guess its not that useful to begin with, and without Trim the write performance will start to drop off anyways. Thanks for the clarification. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
