Thanks for this thread! I was just coming here to discuss this very same problem. I'm running 2009.06 on a Q6600 with 8GB of RAM. I have a Windows system writing multiple OTA HD video streams via CIFS to the 2009.06 system running Samba.
I then have multiple clients reading back other HD video streams. The write client never skips a beat, but the read clients have constant problems getting data when the "burst" writes occur. I am now going to try the txg_timeout and see if that helps. It would be nice if these tunables were settable on a per-pool basis though. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
