Nope, that doesn't count for confirmation. It is at least theoretically possible to implement raidz using techniques that would (a) unintelligently stripe all blocks (even small ones) across multiple disks, thus hurting performance on small operations, or (b) implement raidz such that striping of blocks behaves differently for small operations (plus parity). So the confirmation I'm looking for would be somebody who knows the actual source code, and the actual architecture that was chosen to implement raidz in this case. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
