BuyVM announces free backups for all 256MB+ OpenVZ plans!
so you're choosing not to use compression or dedup?
Not in all deployments. NJ is a much smaller deployment so the plan right now is to just get a much bigger chassis (24 drives) and use part of it for customer VM's (for storage plans) and some for backups.
We're coding with hardlinks in mind but if ZFS proves to not demand 128GB of RAM just for the dedup tables, I'll consider it too.
The problem with ZFS is that even with an SSD for L2ARC, you still need a fairly decent amount of RAM for mapping.

I'm seeking beta testers for those interested 
You're welcome to login here to check it out:
URL: http://199.19.227.70/
LOGIN: testpony
PASSWORD: demo
Once in, head over to http://199.19.227.70/vserver/4/backups and poke around. You're welcome to set a password, "touch" some files and create/restore snapshots. Please don't create large dd's as this just chugs hard on this development server.
-----------------------
KNOWN BUGS
-----------------------
- The 'max snapshots' limit is not honoured at this time
- The 'snapshots used' counter isn't accurate at all (it's just stub data for now)
- The file count statistic isn't updated once completed
- The size statistic isn't updated once completed either
- New nightly backups aren't actually being created (the cron simply isn't setup, this is intentional)
- The 'characters' counter isn't working yet (again, more stub data)
I hope to have this merged over to production by this weekend with the top bugs, as well as any other bugs you list, being fixed by then.
This revision of stallion has quite a few quirk fixes as well as additional features (namely the 'status' information always being shown). There is still a memory accounting bug pending that will be addressed during roll out.
