Hello friends,
I've recently seen a strange phenomenon with ZFS on Solaris 10u3, and was
wondering if someone may have more information.
The system uses several zpools, each a bit under 10T, each containing one zfs
with lots and lots of small files (way too many, about 100m files and 75m

Although I'm not certain, this sounds a lot like the other pool
fragmentation issues.

Al,
That makes so much sense that I can't believe I missed it. One bay was the one
giving me the problems. Switching drives didn't affect that. Switching cabling
didn't affect that. Changing Sata controllers didn't affect that. However,
reorienting the case on it's side did!

wondering if someone could comment on which versions of opensolaris ZFS will
seamlessly work when imported.
Thanks.
