What are all the ZFS theoretical limits?

Hello,
I've read on ZFS Administratio Guide that ZFS supports 256 quadrillions of zettabytes and that directories can have 256 trillions of entries.

But I think it's not clear what could be the maximum capacity of a single dataset and maybe there a different limits depending on the dataset type, specifically, filesystems and volumes.

If you know, please, let me know as well.

Thanks in advance,
Carlos.

Howdy, Stranger!
