ZFS allows you to use variable blocksizes (sized a power of 2 from 512
to 128k), and as far as I know, a compressed block is put into the
smallest fitting one.

Hi,
ZFS can use block sizes up to 128k. If the data is compressed, then
this size will be larger when decompressed.
So, can the decompressed data be larger than 128k? If so, does this
also hold for metadata? In other words,
can I have a 128k block on the disk with, for instance, indirect block
