currently, maximum compression using gzip compresses a 280gb file down to 70gb on my freenas volume.
same file, 7zip will compress to 30gb, but that's not internal.
i don't want to store these files as 7zip files, because i think that data dedupe will save more space when they're not in their own archive files.
is there any plans to use 7z as an internal compression on volumes? plug-in in development, perhaps? i understand 7z is slow, but performance isn't an issue for me, file size is.
i'm just experimenting with data at this stage, it's kinda fun.
