Hi Craig, Thanks for the suggestion. I would if I could. I'd also probably try another file system. Though the good news is, enabling the write cache on that array has improved things significantly. Which, in my case, was:

For now I am happy with the situation, but I'd be interested to hear the experiences of others.
