With osol0906 we get a write speed of 5-6mb/sec when writing to a iscsi lun on

On the same server using osol0811 the write speed is about 45mb/sec...
Even if we use comstar serving the iscsi target in osol0906 we get the same
result.
What are we missing? Or is there simply a very serious bug with osol0906.
Any ideas?
I'd guess you are seeing the effects of this fix:
6770534 zvols do not observe character device semantics
Prior to 6770534 zvols were essentially behaving as write-caching devices.
With the fix for 6770534 now commit writes synchronously which is the correct
behavior. Build 115 includes several enhancements (including 6808269 6794362)
which should support enabling write-caching on an individual COMSTAR lun if you
want to re-enable this behavior.
