I only see the blocking while load testing, not during regular usage, so I am not so worried. I will try the kernel settings to see if that helps if/when I see the issue in production.
For what it is worth, here is the pattern I see when load testing NFS (iometer, 60% random, 65% read, 8k chunks, 32 outstanding I/Os): data01 59.6G 20.4T 46 24 757K 3.09M data01 59.6G 20.4T 39 24 593K 3.09M data01 59.6G 20.4T 45 25 687K 3.22M data01 59.6G 20.4T 45 23 683K 2.97M data01 59.6G 20.4T 33 23 492K 2.97M data01 59.6G 20.4T 16 41 214K 1.71M data01 59.6G 20.4T 3 2.36K 53.4K 30.4M data01 59.6G 20.4T 1 2.23K 20.3K 29.2M data01 59.6G 20.4T 0 2.24K 30.2K 28.9M data01 59.6G 20.4T 0 1.93K 30.2K 25.1M data01 59.6G 20.4T 0 2.22K 0 28.4M data01 59.7G 20.4T 21 295 317K 4.48M data01 59.7G 20.4T 32 12 495K 1.61M data01 59.7G 20.4T 35 25 515K 3.22M data01 59.7G 20.4T 36 11 522K 1.49M data01 59.7G 20.4T 33 24 508K 3.09M LSI SAS HBA, 3 x 5 disk raidz, Dell 2950, 16GB RAM. -Scott -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
