I have a system with a bunch of disks, and I¹d like to know how much faster it would be if I had an SSD for the ZIL; however, I don¹t have the SSD and I don¹t want to buy one right now. The reasons are complicated, but it¹s not a cost barrier. Naturally I can¹t do the benchmark right now...
But if I could create a RAM device, and use that for ZIL, of course it would be irresponsible, but I have no data on the system yet, and this is all just to establish the upper bound of what performance could be if I had the SSD. After doing the benchmark, I would reformat the machine anyway. Can I create a ram device and use it for the ZIL? Can I somehow disable the ZIL in an irresponsible way, to establish the upper bound for performance on my system? Thanks...
