Maybe I should really consider switching from #ZFS to #btrfs for my Linux/OpenWrt/Gluon dev partition. Deduplication + compression for their Git worktrees was the main reason why I added this partition in the first place, next to my ext4. And btrfs has these, too.
Don't quite remember why I chose #ZFS back then over #btrfs. Either the space savings were greater or the OpenWrt/Linux build times were faster in my tests.

@T_X@chaos.social ZFS with its compressed ARC reducing build times sounds likely if you have limited system memory.
