Even if you think you use sequential IO... If you use snapshots... Thanks to the nature of snapshot creation & deletion & the nature of COW, you probably don't have much sequential IO in your system, after a couple months of actual usage. Some people use raidzN, but I always use mirrors. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
