The problem was still there in 3.0: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=421482 and work is being done for 3.1 to improve things: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=442967 The problem with ext3 was its journalling, and I suspect ZFS may behave similarly (although I haven't tested it myself). -- James Andrewartha
