Ok. Prefetch every used sector in the pool. Problem solved. Let the disks sort all the requests into on-disk order.

Which seems ... more than likely. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
