Most likely you'll have the same experience with/without encryption. Look for a hardware problem. If you don't find a hardware problem, look deeper. For example, maybe there's only a few bad sectors on disk, and you happened to hit them when you ran encryption. So if you don't find the problem repeating the same test without encryption ... Use a larger data set, up to the size of the entire pool. Probably the fastest and easiest... Run something like memetest86 to test all your RAM. Are you using ECC ram? You could probably skip the memtest safely if you have ECC. If that still doesn't yield any results, try stressing & overheating the CPU doing unrelated work at the same time while you're repeating your disk test unencrypted. 16-threaded infinite random number generator dumping to the null bucket, while you're running your disk test without encryption. That should be a pretty exhaustive process to check your CPU, memory, motherboard & buses, disk controllers, and disks. I bet you'll find some hardware issue. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
