I'm curious, what kind of storage system do ya'll use for your container pools?

We are getting a 78% savings on a mixed workload (BA, Oracle, VM, Exchange, 
SQL) with about 350 nodes moving around 10TB of data a night.

This inline deduplication and compression thing really is amazing;

excerpt from q stgpool f=d

                Deduplication Savings: 153,840 G (90.83%)
                  Compression Savings: 8,711 G (56.07%)
                    Total Space Saved: 162,550 G (95.97%)

So on top of the 90.83% deduplication saving (that dont' require any
reclaiming) this customer saves another 56.07% of the stored data due to
compression making it a total of 95.97% space saved.
These figures require a lot of duplicate data of course but still,
containerpools FTW!
We call it the "cool pool" btw. :-)
