Mac OS X A French user has discovered that ZFS is now 'officially' supported in Leopard [French], while testing the latest build of Apple's upcoming operating system. Indeed it is now possible to create disk images or partitions formated in ZFS (screen capture included). However, it seems that it is not possible yet to install the OS on a ZFS partition.

"Does it really stripe by default (like, split actual files), or just not-mirror?"

Well, from what I understood, yes!
I went to the link http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/demos/basics/
and after the first half of the presentation he says:

"And once again we can take a look at the statistics.
And now we're seeing that IO is flowing through both of the mirrors.
This is called dynamic striping in zfs and it's on by default and automatically and it means that you always get the best write and read bandwidth for your storage."
