just a few comments + using S3 as a block device will always suffer from the fact that it really isn’t a block device… hiding it behind any other block device interface won’t really help except in very constrained cases (basically, what you proved again) + ZFS aggregates writes, which further complicates fake block device interfaces + there is a dev effort to come up with an object-based vdev type, but I’m not aware of its current status + L2ARC is definitely not a write-through cache
