That just about sums up my impression. Nine out of ten for porting the
code. one out of hundred for the documentation.

ZFS works, when you actually get it up and running (after sorting out
the various tuning quirks it needs, such as limiting the arc cache so
other processes don't time out when it flushes the cache), but it
DEFINITELY needs a little more spitshine in the documentation
department. Along with manpages that don't refer to sun manpages never
going into FreeBSD.
