iSCSI writes require a sync to disk for every write. SMB writes get cached in memory, therefore are much faster.

I have read in these forums that it is faster. -Scott -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
