\fBlzjb\fR. It is also approximately 80% faster on decompression, while
giving approximately 10% better compression ratio.
When the \fBlz4_compress\fR feature is set to \fBenabled\fR, the
administrator can turn on \fBlz4\fR compression on any dataset on the
! pool using the \fBzfs\fR(1M) command. Please note that doing so will
! immediately activate the \fBlz4_compress\fR feature on the underlying
! pool (even before any data is written), and the feature will not be
! deactivated. Since this feature is not read-only compatible, this
! operation will render the pool unimportable on systems without support
! for the \fBlz4_compress\fR feature. Booting off of \fBlz4\fR-compressed
! root pools is supported.
