Wasn't NetBSD 8 supposed to have zfs? Last time I read something about it, it sounded like it was practically finished. But the release notes do not mention it at all.

No those changes are in -current, and still a bit rough around the edges but much better.

Thank you! So, maybe next time... ;-)

I just now installed 8.0-release in vmware, with two drives, and used zpool to create a new zfs filesystem.

I can't vouch for how optimized it is; but zfs is definitely there. https://gyazo.com/0f6261cf415b85010fcaa92557d783b4

Well, what do you know? The command is there indeed. I had only read the release notes, where mention of zfs is conspicuously absent.
