== Feature Comparison: Open ZFS vs Oracle ZFS ==
== Feature Flags Overview ==
This is where the table goes! I'm not sure what that table will look like, but here are a couple of possibilities...


{| border=1
== libzfs_core ==
!Open ZFS
 
!Oracle ZFS
== CLI Usability ==
 
These are improvements to the command line interface. While the end result is a generally more friendly user interface, getting the desired behavior often required modifications to the core of ZFS.
 
==== Pool Comment ====
 
OpenZFS has a per-pool comment property which can be set with the <tt>zpool set</tt> command, but can be read even if the pool is not imported, so it is accessible even if the pool cannot be imported.

==== Size Estimates for <tt>zfs send</tt> and <tt>zfs destroy</tt> ====
 
This feature enhances OpenZFS's internal space accounting information. This new accounting information is used to provide a <tt>-n</tt> (dry-run) option for <tt>zfs send</tt> which can instantly calculate the amount of send stream data a specific <tt>zfs send</tt> command would generate. It is also used for a <tt>-n</tt> option for <tt>zfs destroy</tt> which can instantly calculate the amount of space that would be reclaimed by a specific <tt>zfs destroy</tt> command.

==== vdev Information in <tt>zpool list</tt> ====
 
OpenZFS adds a <tt>-v</tt> option to the <tt>zpool list</tt> command which shows detailed sizing information about the vdevs in the pool:

==== <tt>zfs send</tt> Progress Reporting ====
 
OpenZFS introduces a <tt>-v</tt> option to <tt>zfs send</tt> which reports per-second information on how much data has been sent, how long it has taken, and how much data remains to be sent.

== Performance ==
 
==== Asynchronous Filesystem and Volume Destruction ====
 
Destroying a filesystem requires traversing all of its data in order to return its used blocks to the pool's free list. Before this feature the filesystem was not fully removed until all blocks had been reclaimed. If the destroy operation was interrupted by a reboot or power outage the next attempt to import the pool (probably during boot) would need to complete the destroy operation synchronously, possibly delaying a boot for long periods of time.
 
With asynchronous destruction the filesystem's data is immediately moved to a "to be freed" list, allowing the destroy operation to complete without traversing any of the filesystem's data. A background process reclaims blocks from this "to be freed" list and is capable of resuming this process after reboots without slowing the pool import process.
 
The new freeing algorithm also has a significant performance improvement when destroying clones. The old algorithm took time proportional to the number of blocks ''referenced'' by the clone, even if most of those blocks could not be reclaimed because they were still referenced by the clone's origin. The new algorithm only takes time proportional to the number of blocks unique to the clone.

== Dataset Properties ==
 
These are new filesystem, volume, and snapshot properties which can be accessed with the <tt>zfs(1)</tt> command's <tt>get</tt> subcommand. See the <tt>zfs(1)</tt> manpage for your distribution for more details on each of these properties.
