We're seeing a problem where rrdcached corrupts rrd files and remembering this thread and knowning it uses mmap and we're on ZFS I was wondering it this may be the cause for this issue too. I've just recompiled rrdtool without mmap support and am clearing down all corrupted files but it would be good to know if any progress was made on this?
