I may be seeing similar issues. Have you tried leaving top -SHa running and seeing what threads are using CPU when it hangs? I did and saw pid 17 [zfskern{txg_thread_enter}] using lots of CPU but no disk activity happening. Do you see similar?

Hi,

does someone else experience deadlocks / hangs in ZFS?

What I see is that if on a 2 socket / 4 cores -> 16 threads system I do a lot in parallel (e.g. updating ports in several jails), then the system may get into a state were I can login, but any exit (e.g. from top) or logout of shell blocks somewhere. Sometimes it helps to CTRL-C all updates to get the system into a good shape again, but most of the times it doesn't.

On another system at the same rev (333966) with a lot less CPUs (and AMD instead of Intel), I don't see such a behavior.

Bye,
Alexander.
