Anybody using maczfs / ZEVO? Have good or bad things to say, in terms of reliability, performance, features?
My main reason for asking is this: I have a mac, I use Time Machine, and I have VM's inside. Time Machine, while great in general, has the limitation of being unable to intelligently identify changed bits inside a VM file. So you have to exclude the VM from Time Machine, and you have to run backup software inside the VM. I would greatly prefer, if it's reliable, to let the VM reside on ZFS and use zfs send to backup my guest VM's. I am not looking to replace HFS+ as the primary filesystem of the mac; although that would be cool, there's often a reliability benefit to staying on the supported, beaten path, standard configuration. But if ZFS can be used to hold the guest VM storage reliably, I would benefit from that. Thanks...
