Hello zfs-discuss,

  A file system with a lot of small files.
  zfs send fsA | ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] zfs recv fsB

  On a sending site nothing else is running or touching the disks.
  Yet still the performance is far from being satisfactionary.
  When serving data the same pool/fs can read over 100MB/s.
  This is s10u3.

  Maybe it's due that zfs send is single threaded and traversing lot
  of small blocks just take a time and can't saturate underlying LUNs?
