Subject: Data-deduplication?
Date: Sat, 11 Oct 2008 19:06:29 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081012020629.GA14615@bludgeon.org> (raw)
I recall their being a thread here a number of months back regarding
data-deduplication support for bttfs.
Did anyone end up picking that up and giving a go at it? Block level
data dedup would be *awesome* in a Linux filesystem. It does wonders
for storing virtual machines w/ NetApp and WAFL, and even ZFS doesn't
have this feature yet (although I've read discussions on them looking
to add it).
Thanks for everyone's hard work!
Ray
