Over a pretty quiet Gigabit link, 3x 10k SCSI disks, all on the same controller, in a RAIDZ pool exported using shareiscsi:
# time dd if=/dev/urandom of=/var/log/maillogs/test bs=1024 count=100000 100000+0 records in 100000+0 records out real 0m6.958s user 0m0.065s sys 0m6.893s (second try) real 0m6.858s user 0m0.065s sys 0m6.783s (third) real 0m6.881s user 0m0.065s sys 0m6.815s The only problem I've had is with directories that have a lot of file creation and deletion - sometimes listing these directories can be incredibly slow, even with only a couple of files in them, but I think that might be a bug in the (rather old) version of zfs I'm using.
