<p>The third quarter of 2014 was another productive quarter for
the &os; project. A lot of work has been done on various ARM
platforms, with the goal of bringing them to Tier 1 status in

the state of &os; as a desktop operating system. As usual,
performance improvements feature in several places in this
report and many of these can benefit from user benchmarking to

about ZFS than proper documentation.</p>
<p>After over a year of work, a new ZFS chapter has been added
to the &os; Handbook. Over 20,000 words describe the
basics of creating, managing, and maintaining a ZFS pool.
Advanced features like compression,
deduplication, and delegation are covered. The chapter also contains a
glossary of terms, explaining a number of the concepts unique
to ZFS, and documents some of
the many <tt>sysctl</tt> variables that can be used for tuning.</p>

<p>The remaining work to be done is in the FAQ section, which aims to help
users address the most common questions or problems they might
face with ZFS. We would like to hear experiences,
questions, misconceptions, gotchas, stumbling blocks and
suggestions for the FAQ section from other users. A use cases
section that highlights some of the cases where ZFS provides
advantages over traditional file systems is also planned.</p>
