ZFS is a filesystem that has some rather intriguing features, especially when paired with PostgreSQL. We'll discuss some of the things that we've been able to do by combining ZFS and Postgres:

• The surprising effectiveness of compression (sometimes.)

And maybe cover a couple other things we've learned along the way!
