Re: Snow Leopard

Some more about its supposed features. Seeing the size of the apps shrinking is nice. Especially mail. Going from nearly 300mb to just under 100 is quite the improvement. Less bloated apps = far better performance.

ZFS sounds mighty nice, also!

Among the advantages of ZFS are storage pooling, data redundancy, automatic error correction, dynamic volume expansion, and snapshots -- technologies that apply primarily to servers and higher-end workstation users who deal with multiple disk drives.
