Long and short of it is - major differences in rsync lots of data from OS X (external Drobo Pro) to new FreeNAS 8.3.1-RELEASE-p2
Although many directories and sub-directories, the bottom line is what is originally about 7.15TB (OS X) ends up being 8.39TB (FreeNAS). No compression on either end.
I just did a small directory from OS X to a new unused pool...rsync 3.0.9, ran rsync with and without --sparse (same results) on a dir.... du -sh on dir from OS X 70M, FreeNAS 85M
created a text file "blocksize.txt", ls -la shows 6 bytes on both systems.
du -sh blocksize.txt:
OS X 4.0K
FreeNAS 1.5k
smallest file is around 527038 bytes (from ls -la)
1) can someone running OS X rsync a directory to a FreeNAS box and report the results of a du -sh for both the source and the destination?
2) can you also please note if you are using an OS later than 10.5 whether HFS+ compression is on (I am running 10.5 so there is no compression)
My FreeNAS install is RAIDZ2
This might help if you need more data http://pastebin.com/ig4X2YRy
