Or maybe I shouldn't use ZFS on this thing, given the somewhat limited RAM (by today's bloated standards) and ZFS's cache which is separate from the Linux page cache. But being able to make point-in-time consistent snapshots as backups and send them offsite with zfs send/receive over SSH is really appealing. With most other filesystems, backups would mean traversing the filesystem and getting a possibly inconsistent snapshot.
