Hi Ben,

I'd be interested in doing some testing time allowing.  Yes ZFS on Linux
isn't there in terms of performance yet unfortunately.  But as I mentioned,
if it's just acting as network storage it might be bearable....maybe?

I was reading today that PC-BSD is using ZFS now so that could be another
interesting experiment.
