ZFS looks pretty cool. I certainly hope this is the case.

I hadn't heard about ZFS until now. It sounds like a very interesting file system. I just wonder how much space all the error checking takes up.

Also, the feature "copy-on-write" may make multithreading a bit difficult if sharing data through the disk. The biggest application of this would be databases, but I'm not so sure that much database application type stuff is done on macs.
