For tests, we can start with this list: https://github.com/dlangille/zfs_benchmarks/issues <https://github.com/dlangille/zfs_benchmarks/issues> We can start as soon as I figure out how to provide access to the testers. See above re serial connection. I want to provide access, but I want to keep access restricted to only this box and not to the rest of my home LAN. I plan to do this via a VLAN. I could fire up a Rasperberry Pi and allow ssh into that. Will that be enough power for what you need to do? — Dan Langille http://langille <http://langille/>.org/
