Does using ZFS or BTRFS pools instead of the Unraid array eliminate the FUSE filesystem bottleneck?

The title is pretty much the question.

After watching some videos and doing some reading about VM performance with Unraid I finally did some tuning to run VM's and some of my docker containers that have databases directly on a disk by changing paths to "/mnt/disk#" to avoid the overhead caused by FUSE.

But now I'm wondering if converting my entire array (which is probably small compared to most of the people here) 18TB over to ZFS in raidz1 would eliminate the need for these workarounds.

You can enable the option "Permit exclusive shares" (see Settings -> Global Share Settings)

This will bypass the fuse system and operates the same as accessing /mnt/disk*.

 

This will work for shares residing only on a pool device.
