I recently got a new SSD (ocz vertex LE 50gb) It seems to work really well as a ZIL performance wise. My question is, how safe is it? I know it doesn't have a supercap so lets' say dataloss occurs....is it just dataloss or is it pool loss?
also, does the fact that i have a UPS matter? the numbers i'm seeing are really nice....these are some nfs tar times before zil: real 2m21.498s user 0m5.756s sys 0m8.690s real 2m23.870s user 0m5.756s sys 0m8.739s and these are the same ones after. real 0m32.739s user 0m5.708s sys 0m8.515s real 0m35.580s user 0m5.707s sys 0m8.526s I also sliced it....i have 16 gb ram so i used a 9 gb slice for zil and the rest for L2ARC this is for a single 10 drive raidz2 vdev so far....i'm really impressed with the performance gains
