Yes, I'm using ZFS on laptop to get benefits of snapshotting and zfs
send/receive, apart from that the machine does not do heavy IO :)

Thanks for advice, definitely it is not a intended use scenario.

May some changes in documentation will help to provide better clarity.
Or may be even informational message while creating second pool on a
same disk.

Title:
  zfs scrub starts on all pools simultaneously

Status in zfs-linux package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  # Environment

  Description:    Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
  Release:        16.04

  Linux 4.10.0-38-generic-tuxonice #42~ppa1-Ubuntu SMP Mon Oct 30
  20:21:41 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

  zfsutils-linux  0.6.5.6-0ubuntu18 amd64

  
  # Current behaviour

  `/usr/lib/zfs-linux/scrub` starts `zfs scrub` on all pools at the same
  time. If pools are located on the same disk - scrub performance
  degrades badly.

  # Proposed behaviour

  * simplest one - start scrub of one pool after another scrub is finished
  * advanced - detect pools which are located on the same disk and start scrubs 
on them sequentially, if they are on different disks it is fine to run them in 
parallel
