I believe zfs will also have additional demands on the cpu due to its checksumming feature. I recall it to be single thread based, this likely means cpu demands become visible on single cpu systems. Some of the parameters are tunable. Not sure about the current zfs defaults in Indiana though. -Shiv _______________________________________________ indiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/indiana-discuss
