Hi to all.
I'm testing BPC4 by backing up a couple of hosts.
These hosts are mostly identical, thus I would expect that most of the files
are shared between the pool.

How can I check this ? In example, /bin/ls should be the same on all hosts,
how can I check if /bin/ls is seen from the pool or if BPC is
transferring it again?

Second question: by disabling compression (i'm using ZFS with native
compression),
and I don't want to resync everything again by disabling the
compression, what if I set
it to "1" ? It should be very very fast and less CPU-intesive than 3
(default), right ?

Any way to remove compression automatically from the whole pool
without resync everything?
Our first sync requires 1 or 2 days (on certain servers) to be
completed, I don't want to start
backups from scratch.

May be something like this proof-of-concept ?

find /var/backups/backuppc/cpool -type f - exec gunzip {} \;
