If you think the UPS is good enough that you never have to worry about
your machine rebooting then the extra memory isn't needed to match t

Hi,
I'm currently testing a Mtron Pro 7500 16GB SLC SSD as a ZIL device and
seeing very poor performance for small file writes via NFS.
Copying a source code directory with around 4000 small files to the ZFS
pool over NFS without the SSD log device yields around 1000 IOPS (pool
