I find that XFS outperforms EXT4, but having ZFS root has some nice admin functionality.

<p>If you are willing to put in some work, you can have ZFS root
with your Ubuntu (and Debian) today:</p>

<p>With a little more effort, you can have native ZFS encrypted root
as well...<br>

<div>It seems Ubuntu 19.10 will come with an "experimental" ZFS
option:</div>

it is licensing...</div>
