Big News for ZFS on Linux

Yeah, I'm talking 10k+, so this is only specific types of applications. In basic benchmarks, ZFS seemed to perform fine well into with 10s of thousands of snapshots. This is still far more snapshots than basic containers will create, so it's really only a problem for situations where you're doing tons of checkpointing.

Yeah I've been using Docker on Btrfs and haven't had issues. I do wonder why it takes so long (maybe 4 seconds) to delete containers, when deleting the snapshot for that container is instant. I haven't found dm based containers to be any faster.

Maybe the application is ignoring the SIGTERM? https://docs.docker.com/compose/reference/stop/

No I mean when I use 'docker rm' when the container isn't even running.
