I have a very non-standard storage setup at home. The setup is made up of a 3x500G raidz array on ZFS hosted by OSX. For the longest time I could not get files to copy over samba on ZFS. The files would stream just fine but not copy over, they would abort at the 99% transfer point. Well, I have finally found the fix for it; turn off extended attributes!

smb.conf

#vfs objects = notify_kqueue,darwinacl,darwin_streams
vfs objects = notify_kqueue,darwinacl

; The darwin_streams module gives us named streams support.
stream support = no
ea support = no

; Enable locking coherency with AFP.
darwin_streams:brlm = no

As Charles Heston would say, You can have my ZFS when you pry it from my cold dead hands.

viva ZFS on OSX!

I spent the better part of the day trying to figure out why the Final Cut Pro audio was out of sync. The audio would be delayed by 3 seconds in playback. I thought it was some setting in Final Cut Pro that broke, but eventually came to the conclusion that it was the OS and not Final Cut Pro that was causing the audio delay. The specific cause was the VoodooHDA driver, even though it worked perfect in ordinary applications such as iTunes and Safari it had a delay issue with Final Cut Pro. The Fix? Install SoundFlowerBed and configure your audio output settings in it. This somehow magically fixes the delay issue in the VoodooHDA driver. I thought I should post it here for “internet” record keeping.
