Sam<p>Ok I CLEARLY don't understand ZFS as well as I like to think I do. The answer is the normally hidden "written" property on the snapshots. So they are effectively using a lot of space after all.</p><p><a href="https://social.running.cafe/tags/zfs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>zfs</span></a> <a href="https://social.running.cafe/tags/openzfs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>openzfs</span></a></p>
Sam<p>Oh ok it IS snapshots somehow, but here's my full list of snapshots.

I have about a month of snapshots which are at most 50MB each so that doesn't account for it.</p><p>Could this be due to blocksize configuration or something? 🤯</p>
