Howdy All,

I've a bit of a strange problem here. I have a filesystem with one snapshot 
that simply refuses to be destroyed. The snapshots just prior to it and just 
after it were destroyed without problem. While running the zfs destroy command 
on this particular snapshot, the server becomes more-or-less hung. It's 
pingable but will not open a new shell (local or via ssh) however existing 
shells will occasionally provide some interaction, but at an obscenely slow 
rate, if at all. Also, since this snapshot is unusually large in size so I've 
allowed the server to chew on it over night without success. 

It set up as a 3-disk raidz configuration. Here's a abbreviated listing of it 
(the pool1/st...@20100421.0800 snapshot is the one that is misbehaving):

ba...@~$ zfs list -t filesystem,snapshot -r pool1/Staff

Has anyone seen this type of problem? Any ideas?

Thanks,
