So this is great, if you're just looking to deduplicate read only files. Less so if you intend to write to them. Write to one and they're both updated.

Anyway. Offline/lazy dedup (not in the zfs dedup sense) is something that could be done in userspace, at the file level on any filesystem that supports reflinks. When a tool like rdfind finds a duplicate, instead of replacing with a hardlink, create a copy of the file with `copy_file_range(2)` and let the filesystem create a reflink to it. Now you've got space savings and they're two separate files so if one is written to the other remains the same.
