Right, thanks (also to Richard and Daniel) for the explanation. I was afraid this was to good to be true, nice to see it stated this clearly though. That would leave us with three options; 1) Deal with it and accept performance as it is. 2) Find a way to speed things up further for this workload 3) Stop trying to use ZFS for this workload Option 1 is not going to be feasible, so we're left with 2 and 3. We will have to do some more benchmarks in the new year. Maybe if trying different NFS wsize-s results in different figures. Also we'll look at UFS on the Thor, although I am not looking forward to handle large amounts of data on anything other than ZFS. Spoiled for life probably :) In the mean time, if any of you would have time to look at our iozone data and spotted glaring mistakes, we would definitely appreciate your comments.
