It's Ok to ignore this problem if Indiana only targets single-user installations which never want to share their filesystems via network and/or other users[1] - but with more than one user and/or shared filesystems/directories you'll quickly end-up in situations where quotas become usefull or mandatory (unless you trust all users that they don't fill-up the filesystem by accident, intentional or by downloading the lasted Simpsons episode...). > > the NFS performance on ZFS is currently not very good > > Roch has stuff to say about ZFS + NFS - please file a bug if you're > seeing poor ZFS + NFS performance. > http://blogs.sun.com/roch/entry/nfs_and_zfs_a_fine I've seen that entry and I am monitoring the changes/improvements since some time... but the general setup with the ZFS _defaults_ didn't change much (the last time I tested the difference it was almost 40min (!!) build time difference, e.g. building OS/Net B37 on a NFS+UFS vs. NFS+ZFS filesystem on two Ultra5 with maxed-out memory on both NFS client&&server...).
