Zbox looks pretty interesting, thanks for linking it!

Have you done any performance testing to compare zbox vs xfs/ext4/zfs/whatever on the same system? I saw the benchmark in the readme, but that doesn't necessarily show how much overhead or loss of performance there is over the native filesystem.

No, I didn't. And I don't think it is necessary as Zbox is much more like an 'application-level' fs, obviously can't match the system level fs.
