What's the difference between using Poudriere or Synth, though?

This is a clean system, I can't imagine a jail being cleaner... it was unpacked from the DVD the day before yesterday....
Both are clean room builds; ie where only minimal build dependancies
are installed for each port build. The main difference is that:
  * poudriere uses jails to achieve this
  * synth uses unionfs+chroot to achieve this

Does it mean synth can't be used on ZFS? AFAIK unionfs isn't properly supported on ZFS, i.e. a file that exists in the underlying fs can't be marked as deleted in the overlying fs.

I use synth on a ZFS raid system....works fine
