4ZFS wouldn't have fixed this either.
There's a fundimental problem with formating your VM disks as raw for space management.
@feld I'm using PVE and PBS, but then I backup my 4TB VM, even though the VM is is only using realistically 2.3TBs it still creates a 4TB image.
I could mend this by converting the image to qcow2 but I was trying to get off the file format. I could also do btrfs/zfs dataset remote replication, but all of that is not supported in PBS and I was tired of building my own solutions.
The easiest one would be the dataset replication, but idk I got to think about that one.
I'd 🐝 putting btrfs on top of glusterFS, that sounds kind of cursed tbh.
