I understand that FreeBSD 7.0 will have ZFS file system. I did go through the sun website to understand the advantages of ZFS. Given that, will FreeBSD have a BTree/B+Tree(replicating c++ multimaps, but file based) by default on ZFS which i guess should be very useful for persons like me who do not want a full fledged database with all SQL features. I am aware of the existence of dbm/ndbm/gdbm, but i guess all support hash. If my thoughts are wrong, pls correct me. I also hope that i have sent to the correct mailing list. Thanks, Balaji. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Get easy, one-click access to your favorites. Make Yahoo! your homepage. http://www.yahoo.com/r/hs
