Interesting suggestion.

I don't know if I dare ... I wonder how VMs would perform on
ZFS-filesystems ... I should test that before actually setting that up.
The system will run ~800km away from me so it should be rather
bullet-proof ;-)

I trust ZFS, sure ... but I don't have experience with it as a storage
for KVM-virtualization.

But I consider it, thanks!
