These are policy-driven snapshot management and replication tools which use OpenZFS for underlying next-gen storage. (Btrfs support plans are shelved unless and until btrfs becomes reliable.) (by jimsalterjrs)

  • Rsync extremely slow on two ZFS local pools
    2 projects | /r/zfs | 6 Dec 2022
    Native rsync is terrible for lots of small file as it copies each file one by one sequentially. If you have lots of cores to work with, use the fpsync utility that comes with the fpart command to run parallel rsync's. You can easily saturate a 10Gb link with multiple rsync processes in parallel
  • Am I crazy to expect 100gbps across the pacific ocean?

    You should probably use something like fpsync and multiple rsync jobs to get the most bandwidth.
  • zfs replication vs multithreaded rsync
    2 projects | /r/zfs | 7 Oct 2021
    I've migrated data from our Isilon to zfs hostA using the fpsync tool that comes with the fpart utility. I get reasonably good throughput from this. 15TB in 5 and 1/2 hours
