Richard Yao fb40095f5f Disable LBA weighting on files and SSDs
The LBA weighting makes sense on rotational media where the outer tracks
have twice the bandwidth of the inner tracks. However, it is detrimental
on nonrotational media such as solid state disks, where the only effect
is to ensure that metaslabs enter the best-fit allocation behavior
sooner, which is detrimental to performance. It also makes no sense on
files where the underlying filesystem can arrange things however it
wants.

Native ZFS for Linux!

ZFS is an advanced file system and volume manager which was originally developed for Solaris and is now maintained by the Illumos community.

ZFS on Linux, which is also known as ZoL, is currently feature complete. It includes fully functional and stable SPA, DMU, ZVOL, and ZPL layers.

Full documentation for installing ZoL on your favorite Linux distribution can be found at: http://zfsonlinux.org
