I have a strange filing that attached slog device doesn't do anything on zpool.

As a back-end storage I use raw volume created on a raidz2 pool with Comstar 
iscsi. Initiator is a standard windows iscsi. Speed and latency is tolerable on 
118b, especially with compression=on and 128k bsize on zfs.

The question is about zfs slog device and how to check if it can improve access.

Does zfs cache raw volume data on slog device or only on a filesystem? 
What kind of tests I can run to see it works?
