Interesting results. Note that you will lose perhaps 40% of the media
speed as you go from the outside cylinders to the inside cylinders. The
max sustaing media speed for that disk is about 72 MBytes/s, so you're doing
pretty good, all things considered.

There is some difference, but its marginal as the files get larger. The
disks in mtank are SATA2 ES 500Gb Seagates in a Intel V5000 system. The
system is a default b61 install and totally untuned.

Even with 155Gb the snaps are pretty quick:

Which is 375GB/s. Much better than:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/mtank# time cp file_10g file_10g.b
real 2m15.705s
user 0m0.008s
sys 0m50.084s
Also double because I imagine it has to read and write thru the same
disk io channel.
Between pools is ok as well:
