+\fBlz4\fR is a high-performance real-time compression algorithm that
+features significantly faster compression and decompression as well as a
+higher compression ratio than the older \fBlzjb\fR compression.
+Typically, \fBlz4\fR compression is approximately 50% faster on
+compressible data and 200% faster on incompressible data than
+\fBlzjb\fR. It is also approximately 80% faster on decompression, while
+giving approximately 10% better compression ratio.
+
+When the \fBlz4_compress\fR feature is set to \fBenabled\fR, the
+administrator can turn on \fBlz4\fR compression on any dataset on the
+pool using the \fBzfs\fR(8) command. Please note that doing so will
+immediately activate the \fBlz4_compress\fR feature on the underlying
+pool (even before any data is written). Since this feature is not
+read-only compatible, this operation will render the pool unimportable
+on systems without support for the \fBlz4_compress\fR feature. At the
+moment, this operation cannot be reversed. Booting off of
+\fBlz4\fR-compressed root pools is supported.
