It sounds to me like you need to disable the Nagle algorithm[1] as
described in the workaround section of 6621560[2].

1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nagle%27s_algorithm
2. http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6621560

I suspect that a similar setting may be needed on the Solaris target
or the Linux initiator as well.
