Yes Juergen, metadata only stores in ARC files' info (location in pool and some other useful info), not the user data.
I think "find" only needs metadata, as it does not read the files' content.
Which can be "verified" because :
- there is no IO at all on the pool (after the first find loop, once ARC has the needed metadata) ;
- there is no ARC demand data at all.
But I may be wrong, so of course feel free to correct me. Thank you.
Thank you for the links, I already read them before posting here, but I may have missed something.
