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
