Want more Bonwick and Moore?
Join us for their keynote on "Deduplication in ZFS"
at the Kernel Conference in Brisbane, Australia,
July 15-17, 2009.
Bill Moore and Jeff Bonwick gave a three-hour tutorial on ZFS at this year's SNIA SDC. Here's the first hour, the rest to follow next week.
This tutorial was my evening entertainment. Thanks so much for the thorough talk and this in-depth look at ZFS, really enjoyed it. I have one question: How are the death-lists of the snapshots calculated an maintained?

Oh, and thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the talk. Bill and I always have fun doing it.
