IMHO the best place to start with this level of analysis is the ZFS on-disk specification doc: http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/download/Community+Group+zfs/docs/ondiskformat0822.pdf It is getting long in the tooth and doesn't document recent features, but it is fundamentally correct. -- richard ZFS storage and performance consulting at http://www.RichardElling.com ZFS training on deduplication, NexentaStor, and NAS performance Las Vegas, April 29-30, 2010 http://nexenta-vegas.eventbrite.com _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
