Hi, from the mailing lists I couldn't figure out whether 11n is supposed to work on stable since the existing mail threads seem to focus on current exclusively. And since the option exists in the stable kernel code as well, albeit neither in GENERIC nor in NOTES, I thought I could give it a try a

Hi, do we have any way to monitor which LBAs of which block device are read/written at a given time? I stumbled upon this, http://southbrain.com/south/2008/02/fun-with-dtrace-and-zfs-mirror.html which is pretty intriguing. Unfortunately on FreeBSD we do not have the DTrace io provider, so his dt
