Hello all, Is it possible to do deduplication in place when the system is idle? That would be pretty useful to keep performance on low memory systems or not increase CPU usage of slower machines such that the filesystem performance would be decreased if using the live approach.
Is this even feasible? Would the dedup database be updated from the last run? Kind of like a ZFS snapshot being taken, except in this case I don't think it can be implemented using ZFS snapshots, or can it? Would the performance benefit of this be worth enough implementing? Just some thoughts, ideas, and questions. Let me know your opinion.
