Where The Btrfs Performance Is At Today
,----[ Quote ]
| For testing we used a ZaReason Verix notebook
| that we are currently reviewing. This notebook
| that is based upon an MSI MS-1656 has an Intel
| Core i7 Q720 processor, 6GB of system memory,
| an 80GB Intel SSDSA2MH08 SSD, and a NVIDIA
| GeForce GTS 250M GPU. We loaded Ubuntu 10.04
| LTS on this powerful notebook with the Linux
| 2.6.35-rc1 kernel while continuing to use
| X.Org Server 1.7.6, GCC 4.4.3, and the GNOME
| 2.30.0 desktop.

When open source licenses collide
,----[ Quote ]
| Itâs an attempt to port the file system of
| Open Solaris into a version of Linux, and was
| created by the good people at the Lawrence
| Livermore Lab.
|
| The problem, as Brian Behlendorf (above) noted
| at Github, is that the licenses are
| incompatible. ZFS must be offered under Sunâs
| CDDL. Linux, of course, is licensed under the
| GPL. You canât combine the two.
|
| It would be like, as the late Richard Pryor
| noted in one of his best monologues, trying to
| mix regular milk with low-fat. It would
| explode.
|
| There are some kludgy work-arounds, Behlendorf
| noted. You can implement ZFS in a user space
| with FUSE, making it a derived work. Or you
| can modify and build it separately from the
| Linux, then build the combination yourself.
| But this is very hard.

10 Reasons Why ZFS Rocks
,----[ Quote ]
| Sun's (NASDAQ: JAVA) open-source ZFS file system
| has some amazing features. It was originally
| designed for Solaris and unveiled in 2005, but
| you'll also find it in OpenSolaris and related
| distributions. In the future it may well become
| a popular file system to run with Linux and BSD
| as well.
