Hi!

I'm new to OpenSolaris and have just set up my own home server with ZFS. The 
server seems to be working alright except for, what I can tell, extremely poor 
i/o performance. When creating a 4.8Gb test file with dd, I get the following 
iostat:

# iostat -d
   cmdk0         cmdk1          sd0       
kps tps serv  kps tps serv  kps tps serv  
  5   1    5    1   0    2    0   0    0  
r

What would be the best course of action to analyze what this depends on?

The disks have one UFS slice, one swap and one ZFS slice each. Essentially, 
they are copies of each other only I have the two ZFS partitions/slices in 
RAIDZ mode to simplify addition of an extra drive to a redundant pool later:

# zpool status
...
        NAME       STATE     READ WRITE CKSUM
        storage     ONLINE       0     0     0
          raidz1    ONLINE       0     0     0
            c1d0s7  ONLINE       0     0     0
            c2d0s7  ONLINE       0     0     0

Any suggestions for how to look for bottlenecks?
