The good news is that it is almost a certaintly that actual iSCSI usage will be of a (more) random nature than your tests, suggesting higher L2ARC usage in real world application. I'm not sure how zfs makes the distinction between a random and sequential read, but the more you think about it, not caching sequential requests makes sense. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
