Interesting, but what does it mean :)

The x4500 for mail (NFS vers=3 on ufs on zpool with quotas):

# ./zilstat.ksh
    N-Bytes  N-Bytes/s N-Max-Bytes/s    B-Bytes  B-Bytes/s B-Max-Bytes/s
     376720     376720     376720    1286144    1286144    1286144
     419608     419608     419608    1368064    1368064    1368064
     555256     555256     555256    1732608    1732608    1732608
     538808     538808     538808    1679360    1679360    1679360
     626048     626048     626048    1773568    1773568    1773568
     753824     753824     753824    2105344    2105344    2105344
     652632     652632     652632    1716224    1716224    1716224

Fairly constantly between 1-2MB/s. That doesn't sound too bad though. 
It's only got 400 nfsd threads at the moment, but peaks at 1024. 
Incidentally, what is the highest recommended nfsd_threads for a x4500 
anyway?
