raiser had very very interesting concepts. but the was crazy in writing absolutely non-readable code.

so with him "going out", there was nobody keen into push it further, even fix the known bugs.

you can compile zfs I had even dkms packages for xbian-package-kernel headers somewhere, what I prepared and never released.

speed is at different level when working with multi vdev filesystems, btrfs is with this functionality at the stage "ok, it is working".

but there are still some memory eating issues (ARC cache not resizing effectively) on zfsonlinux causing troubles. specially on small systems like RPIs 256mb ram.

so it boots and works very well for some hours, then it starts slowing down, until some system stress situation (high memory demand, some more programs started) which will kill the system eventually.
