ZFS has deduplication, you just don't want to use it. As deduplication grows, it requires more and more RAM on the ZFS server. :(

Yeah but veeam doesn't support fast block cloning which means you don't need to ever recopy blocks that don't change. From a performance point of view, fast block cloning gives incredible speed up so that in turn means more backups happen in a short time. That's pretty important even at our small business scale. I guess larger veeam service providers solve things differently.
