        That does actually work and so far we have not seen any bug in that  
area so I am not sure what happened there.

        Performance through COMSTAR is mostly the same as performance of  
your back end on the target system. It will be good if you can test  
your backend (the zvol I assume in this case) directly on the target  
machine to see whats the write performance you are getting by  
directly talking to the zvol with a similar load.
