COMSTAR seems quite promising and useful. Is there any benchmark data yet to compare COMSTAR + ZFS to a normal hardware-based RAID array? For example, test performance with fiber channel direct to a RAID array, and then (using same array hardware for storage) with COMSTAR + ZFS?
It is useful to know if COMSTAR + ZFS boosts performance due to ZFS RAID smarts, much more powerful CPU, and massive caching in RAM, or if going through Solaris kernel and ZFS adds latency which hurts performance.
