>Description:
I'm running some performance tests with iozone to see which filesystem/volume
manager/raid version/... fits my needs best.
After running the test on top of ZFS I destroyed the pool and created a
freebsd-ufs partition on the "empty" drive. Here the output of "gpart show"
=> 34 976773101 ada0 GPT (465G)
34 976773101 1 freebsd-ufs (465G)
I then labeled the partition ada0p1 with gjournal and created a new UFS2 on top
of ada0p1.journal with journaling enabled (-J).
Then the partiton was mounted and the iozone test was started inside. The
command was "iozone -RA -g 16G". When starting to write 1GB of data in 64k
chunks, the system crashed (check the - literally - screenshot attached).
The system wasn't even able to write more than 2GB of the 8GB memory back to
disk before it completly froze.
I did the exact same test with this system and ZFS on the empty disk and
everything worked as expected.
I wasn't able to attach the screenshot, so I uploaded it here:

If you have any questions just contact me.

>How-To-Repeat:
- Setup 9.0-RELEASE on one harddrive
- Fetch ports, compile benchmarks/iozone
- create a GPT scheme on another, empty, disk
- setup a freebsd-ufs partition
- label the partition with gjournal
- create UFS2 on top of the journaled partiton with journaling enabled (-J)
- mount the new fs to /test
- cd to /test
- start iozone like "iozone -Ra -g 16G"
- wait and watch it crash
>Fix:
No clue.
