Tell you what would be really nice (maybe this is just me): I know de-dupe is pool-wide, but could we get stats per-share for it? I only have de-dupe enabled on a couple of my shares, so my overall de-dupe rate is only 1.2x, but on the shares I'm using it on I imagine it'd be a lot higher (lots of disk ISOs from the same company, etc.). I assume this wouldn't be easy to code due to the pool-wide way de-dupe works, would be kind of cool though...
