Hi,

I installed FreeBSD 13.1 server with ZFS raid 10 to serve a PostgreSQL 
database, LDAP and DNS. I never noticed until today, I installed some 
more memory and was checking status after the starting up. DEDUP appears 
enabled, is that by default? I certainly did not enable. Does this mean 
it is in fact enabled and what are the repercussions of disabling now?
