Most of the issue in this case is with the size of the initial
chunk. That said, I've got quite a few reasonably sized filesystems
(I think the largest is 200GB) with moderate usage (max 90GB of
data), and none of them are using more than the first 16kB block in
the System chunk. While I'm not necessarily a typical user, I'd be
willing to bet based on this that in general, most people who aren't
storing very large amounts of data or taking huge numbers of
snapshots aren't going to need a system chunk much bigger than 1MB.
Again, the system chunk has *nothing* to do with snapshots.
Apologies, I somehow completely missed the part of your first reply
where you commented on that...
Agreed with everything else, though.
