Given that ZoL doesn't support reflink (ficlone/ficlonerange; see also https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/issues/405), and that ZFS is a CoW filesystem, that's pretty good reason not to have 1.0 release.
In other words, there is no way no use a key feauture, without enabling deduplication (that's exactly that feature, that requires heaps of RAM).
