Real World DragonFlyBSD Hammer DeDup figures from HiFX - Second Disk 20% ( 88 GB ) Disk Space reclaimed

[Siju George <sgeorge.ml@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I De-Duped the second disk on the backup Server today.

Before De-Dup

Filesystem                Size   Used  Avail Capacity  Mounted on
Backup2                   454G   335G   119G    74%    /Backup2

After De-Dup

Filesystem                Size   Used  Avail Capacity  Mounted on
Backup2                   454G   247G   207G    54%    /Backup2

So 20% or 88 GB reclaimed without deleting anything :-)

No. of PFSes    -       3 Slaves and 3 Masters
