And of course, just to circle back, an rsync via ssh from the client
to the Solaris ZFS/iscsi server came in at 17.5MB/sec, taking 1minute
16 seconds, or about 20% longer. So, NFS (over TCP) is 1.4k/s, and
encrypted ssh is 17.5MB/sec following the same network path.

I believe it was only about 5-10% faster. I don't have the time
results off hand, just some dtrace latency reports.

Should I also mount via async.. would this be honored on the Solaris
end? The other option mentioned with similar caveats was nocto. I just
tried with both, and the observed transfer rate was about 1.4k/s. It
was painful deleting the 3G directory via NFS, with about 100k/s
deletion rate on these 1000 files. Of course, When I went locally the
delete was instantaneous.

I'll give the complete results of a minute of this copy in dtrace results:
