hi again,

to tame the space hunger of /var/pkg a little, i turned zfs compression on for the /var filesystem. then 
i ran "pkg refresh --full" and voila, /var had not even half of its previous size anymore. so that 
worked great.

however, the catch was that the new be, that's created during a "pkg update", doesn't keep the 
compression setting. after the reboot i noticed that the new /var had compression set to off again and 
therefore was big again. is there something specific i have to do to make the new be keep the zfs 
settings?

thanks in advance as always
