Well, I got that idea from this list. I said a little bit about why I believed it was true ... about dedup being ineffective for VM's ... Would you care to describe a use case where dedup would be effective for a VM? Or perhaps cite something specific, instead of just wiping the whole thing and saying "patently false?" I don't feel like this comment was productive... _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
