Mitchell The problem seems to occur with various IO patterns. I first noticed it after using ZFS based storage for a disk image for a xVM/Xen virtual domain, and then, while tracking ti down, observed that either "cp" of a large .iso disk image would reproduce the problem, and more later, a single "dd if=/dev/zero of=myfile bs=16k count=150000" would. So I guess this latter case is a mostly write pattern to the disk, especially after it is noted that the command returns after around 5 seconds, leaving the rest buffered in memory.
