zfs-linux vs zfs-linux-dkms

Hi everyone! I'm considering using zfs for my next arch installation and I'm wondering if there's any benefit from adding ZFS support by downloading a kernel with it by default or using DKMS.

There is no "kernel with it by default". There is only pre-built modules or locally built modules.
