Consider two rather equal servers, both with equal disks (2TB rotational drives); one server have a ZFS mirror (two disk), the other have a ZFS RAIDZ1, with 3 disks.
Both server are unload, we are moving data in, via single Gigabit connection. Moving data into the ZFS mirror lead to a impressive 120 Mbyte/s writing speed, with little or no iodelay (1-2 %). Moving data into ZRAID1 lead to an 60-70 Mbyte/s writing speed, no more, and a decent iodelay on the system (8-10 %). Both seems to me configured equally (eg, for example, no compression). I've read: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/ZFS_on_Linux#sysadmin_zfs_raid_considerations but really i'm got a bit lost... there's somewhere a more clear explanation of the 'effect', and i hope some parameters to tackle with? Thanks. PS: it is not a problem 'per se', the RAIDZ1 pool could be 'slow', but i've the doubt to have done somthing wrong... -- dott.
