Let's play a game here. :-) Suppose you wanted a 1PB zpool and you wanted dedup. How much memory would you need for that and would you separate out ZIL cache etc? I'm guessing ( total WAG ) that one would want at least 16TB of memory. I have no idea of any system out there that can pop that many 8G ECC SIMMs ( 2048 of them ) into. But really .. what sort of theoretical machine would be needed to handle a single 1024 TB zpool ?
