FreeBSD publishes status report |
 |
The FreeBSD project has published its Quarterly Status Report for the months of July through September. The project has done al ot of work to prepare for migrating from its SVN code repository to Git, improved video driver support, updated Linux compatibility, and implemented Zstandard (ZSTD) compression for ZFS volumes. "Zstandard (ZSTD) is a modern high-performance compression algorithm designed to provide the compression ratios of gzip while offering much better performance. ZSTD has been adopted in FreeBSD for a number of other uses, including compressing kernel crash dumps, as a replacement for gzip or bzip for compressing log files, and for future versions of pkg(8). This effort to complete the integration of ZSTD into ZFS is funded by the FreeBSD Foundation. During the third quarter the integrating of ZSTD into OpenZFS was completed in the upstream OpenZFS repository, and the new OpenZFS 2.0 codebase was imported into 13-CURRENT." Further information on work the FreeBSD is doing can be found in the report. |
