A graphic showing "Pride Versioning" where the first number is the Proud Version. Then second is the Default Version. And the last number is the Shame Version.
Made very few changes to the latest build and was thinking maybe I'll be able to ship this one without incrementing the shame version (last number in a version number) and 2 minutes into testing, it's already getting bumped.
Technical independence starts with infrastructure.
Open technologies like FreeBSD and OpenZFS give organizations transparency, control, and the ability to build storage systems without vendor lock-in.

Enable fast, transparent compression with:
zfs set compression=lz4 pool/fs
lz4 reduces storage footprint with virtually no performance penalty — often improving throughput while saving space.
One simple command. Immediate efficiency gains.

Teams are rethinking where their critical systems live. OpenZFS stands out in production—open source, proven at scale, no licensing traps—but expert support matters. Save up to 35% on Klara’s OpenZFS support through Feb 17, 2026. Get tuning and long-term support: na3.hubs.ly/y0hn9K0

Replicate VM datasets between Proxmox nodes using native ZFS tooling.
zfs send -c pool/vmdata@snap | zfs receive backup/vmdata
Compression reduces transfer time, while ZFS checksums ensure what arrives is exactly what you sent.

Hi Anil,
Is this still a conversation you are interested in having?
Fun fact: while many other languages have syntactic sugar, C is the only language with syntactic hydrochloric acid
It would be automatic, but the L2ARC generally only catches a fraction of what is being evicted from the ARC.
If your DDT is so large, a special vdev might be better (needs redundancy unlike L2ARC).
With fast setup you can limit the size of the DDT to prevent it being so big in the first place

Hey Anil,
Hope exam week wasn't as crazy as I remember it being when I was teaching. Let me know when would be a good time to connect re: ZFS.
I even got to meet Xe in person a few weeks ago at @bsdcan.bsky.social. FreeBSD uses Anubis to protect our cgit, bugzilla, and the like, as they were getting bombarded.
