Subject: De-duplication filesystem for Linux

Hi

Is there other working fs with data de-duplication than lessfs ?

http://freshmeat.net/projects/lessfs
http://www.lessfs.com/

Lessfs is a high performance inline data deduplicating file system for
Linux. Lessfs complies to the POSIX standard and is very useful for
backup purposes as well as providing storage for virtual machine
images. Although lessfs is a file system that is implemented in user
space with FUSE, it offers decent performance. Lessfs is capable of
handling data rates up to 350MB/sec. It supports filesystem
encryption.

Cheers,
