Hello,

 While destroying a dataset, sometimes ZFS kind of hangs the machine. I
imagine it's starving all I/O while deleting the blocks, right ?

 Here logbias=latency, the commit interval is the default (30 seconds) and
we have SSDs for logs and cache.

 Is there a way to "slow down" the destroy a little bit in order to reserve
I/O for NFS clients ? Degraded performance isn't as bad as total loss of
availability our case.

 I was thinking we could set logbias=throughput and decrease the commit
interval to 10 seconds to keep it running more smoothly.

 Here's the pool configuration. Note the 2 slogs devices.. they were
supposed to be a mirror but got added by mistake.
