Filesystem/file level dedupe is for suckers. =D

If the greatest filesystem in the world were a living being, it would be our God. That filesystem, of course, is ZFS.

I was talking about block level dedupe.

I thought you might be.

I just wanted to mention ZFS.

Have I mentioned how great ZFS is yet?

ZFS is great! However, it's too complicated for most Linux server use cases (especially with just one block device attached); it's not the default (root filesystem); and it's not supported for at least one major enterprise Linux distro family.
