Hello, I tried enabling dedup on a filesystem, and moved files into it to take advantage of it. I had about 700GB of files and left it for some hours. When I returned, only 70GB were moved.
I checked zpool iostat, and it showed about 8MB/s R/W performance (the old and new zfs filesystems are in the same pool). So I disabled dedup for a few seconds and instantly the performance jumped to 80MB/s It's Athlon64 x2 machine with 4GB RAM, it's only a fileserver (4x1TB SATA for ZFS). arcstat.pl shows 2G for arcsz, top shows 13% CPU during the 8MB/s transfers. Is this normal behavior? Should I always expect such low performance, or is there anything wrong with my setup? Thanks in advance, Hernan -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
