maybe ZFS?

But not on Linux as a kernel module sadly
There's a FUSE implementation which is considerably slower (being
FUSE)
IIRC the author of Linux-ZFS cites the NTFS implementation as
demonstrating that FUSE can produce quite acceptable performance.
Of course, maybe performance of NTFS would be better were it a kernel
module, but I get the strong impression Linux-ZFS is poor because it
doesn't have the developer resources needed to improve it.
Stroller.
