ZFS shouldn't be considered a FUSE-based filesystem. It should be =20 considered a Solaris filesystem, which is yet to be (??) adequately =20 ported to any other platforms. ZFS on Linux would be lovely, but Btrfs will do just fine when it's =20 done. IIRC Btrfs boasts some features that ZFS does not, and lacks =20 some others. Stroller.
