* Limitations
Not really limitations, but this is a list of situations when dedup will
not be triggered:
- compression - basically, dedup is kind of compression, might be worth to
into it in the future though
I don't see why it would be incompatible, compressed blocks are data like
any other. COW and subvolume snapshots work with compressed nodes just as
well as with regular ones...
I agree, I am not saying it's incompatible, just that I probably won't
deal with that unless time permits.

Thanks,
Martin
