I am getting occasional stack backtraces on my screen when trying certain operations (e.g. zfs diff, truncate -s 200M testfile, etc.) but no crashes or serious problems. Is there any specific information or tests you'd like people to do? Thanks to you and other devs for all your careful work integrating ZFS into FreeBSD. It seems amazing that the patch for v28 *almost* even applies to 8-STABLE. cheers, >> PS.

I am guessing good virtualization software helps with kernel development? :) > They will only read it if it comes with a disclaimer and they're license > attached to the top along with a contract signed by you so when they > disagree with it they can hand you a pink-slip with they're license > attached to the top. > > As for VirtualBox, which is a Sun thing, gone Oratorically wrong...
