You are far too dismissive of ZFS; I wonder if they simply licensed it under the GPL, without making any other changes to it, your attitude would change. The constant attempt to prove ZFS is irrelevant or worthless invariably seem to come from hardcore Linux/GPL advocates. If ZFS, precisely as it exists now, came from the GNU/Linux community all the other non GPL open source projects and particularly the Microsofties would not hear the end of it.
