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 blocks (compressed blkptr_t data), that results in more than 1024 blkptr_t when de-compressed? If I had a very large amount of free space, I could try this and see, but since I don't, I thought I'd ask here.
thanks, max _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
