How did you measure it? (I'm not saying it doesn't
take those 45kB - just I haven't checked it myself
and I wonder how you checked it).
ran 'top', looked at 'mem free'
created 1000 filesystems
ran 'top' again.
rebooted to be sure
ran 'top' again
I'm sure I should use something better than

Each filesystem holding onto memory (unnecessarily if
no one is using that filesystem) is something we're thinking
about changing.
OK - glad to hear that it's already been acknowledged as an issue!
Right - NFSv4 allows client's to cross filesystem boundaries.

yeah, thought of that, but we put some structure in ages ago
to get around the possible problems with thousands of entries
in one directory - so we have /export/home/NN/username
where NN is a 2 digit number.
I don't think there's any way to specify an automount map
with multiple levels in it.

You can have composite mounts (multiple nested mounts)
but that is essentially a single automount entry so it
can't be overly long, I believe.
I've seen that in the man page, but I've never managed to
find a use for it!
What I'd *like* to be able to do is have a map that amounts
A slightly different tack now...
what filesystems is it a good (or bad) idea to put on ZFS?
root - NO (not yet anyway)
home - YES (although the huge number of mounts still scares me a bit)
/usr - possible?
/var - possible?
swap - no?
Is there any advantage in having multiple zpools over just

Hey all -
Was playing a little with zfs today and noticed that when I was
untarring a 2.5gb archive both from and onto the same spindle in my
laptop, I noticed that the bytes red and written over time was seesawing
between approximately 23MB/s and 0MB/s.
It seemed like we read and read and read
