I'm busy testing a new tool to backup a full HD and I can select for it to compress its output so I was wondering if there is a point in doing so as it writes to a share and the underlying ZFS dataset has compression enabled.
I'm thinking that if I disable compression in my backup tool, it will work faster and consume less CPU and the ZFS compression will do the job automatically?
Any thoughts on this?
