zfs is a resource hog. i386 is not able to handle the demand as well as amd64. I have never, ever, heard of anyone who has a deep understanding of zfs on FreeBSD recommend anything other than amd64. (Note: I am not such a person, so I am simply reporting my understanding.) FWIW, I tried it once. Once. After spending a few days inspecting all the bullet holes in my feet, I moved it off that i386 machine and all the bullet holes healed up. tl;dr: zfs/i386 Not Recommended. But YMMV. mcl _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
