file system is mostly read-only, it'll need to byteswap all the

And here comes 'zfs rewrite'!
Why would this help? (Obviously file data is never 'swapped').
Metadata (incl checksums?) still has to be byte-swapped.
I'm aware, but is this really ever going to be an issue?
Well, it IS extra work. But yeah, it seems pretty insignificant to me.
