I know "a lot of CPU cycles" is a relative term. But I never notice CPU utilization, even under the heaviest loads I can generate. Note: I'm not generally using compression (which will require CPU) and I'm not using dedupe (which will require RAM). Still, I don't think it's fair or accurate to generalize and say "ZFS will use a lot of CPU cycles," unless you're qualifying it specifically such as "if you have compression enabled." _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
