Right now, the disk speed is so slow that a web management GUI that's been used widely for 20 years times out and doesn't work. I'm reading about similar issues with zfs + nfs + vmware esxi; so this is definitely NOT a SmartOS problem. It's an unfortunate problem of mixing technologies that do things differently. I'm curious what kind of risk one is taking for disabling sync on a zvol for an nfs mount of typical MS Office type files, no database type transactions? > Adding at least one write-optimized SLOG should improve the situation > significantly.
