Given that you're running 8.1-RELEASE, what sort of ZFS tunings are you using in /boot/loader.conf? Tuning is required on this version. The ad0 READ_DMA48 errors could indicate you have a hard disk with bad blocks or is going bad in a different manner. Please install ports/sysutils/smartmontools and provide output of "smartctl -a /dev/ad0" here and I can help you determine that. -- | Jeremy Chadwick j...@parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
