Hi Jim, Thanks for your informative reply. I am involved with kristof (original poster) in the setup, please allow me to reply below

This was chosen to simply avoid any network "issues" and to get the setup working as fast as possible. The setup was created with: sndradm -E pri /dev/zvol/rdsk/gold/myzvol /dev/rramdisk/ram1 sec /dev/zvol/rdsk/gold/myzvol /dev/rramdisk/ram1 ip async Note that the logging disks are ramdisks again trying to avoid disk contention and get fastest performance (reliability is not a concern in this test). Before running the tests, this was the state #sndradm -P /dev/zvol/rdsk/gold/myzvol <- pri:/dev/zvol/rdsk/gold/myzvol autosync: off, max q writes: 4096, max q fbas: 16384, async threads: 2, mode: async, state: logging While we should be getting minimal performance hit (hopefully), we got a big performance hit, disk throughput was reduced to almost 10% of the normal rate. Please feel free to ask for any details, thanks for the help Regards _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
