I�d say it was probably the bug; in theory dedup should increase performance in that situation as the block would be stored in the cache and therefore we wouldn�t need to go to disk to get that data.
Is this true?
Is memory "de-dup'ed" as well? That is, when you access a file through the cache, if it ends up at a de-dup'ed block, is it really the same block in *memory*, too? Or, is the path through memory/cache unique and only the final disk store de-dup'ed?
Until next time...
