Hi,

I see similar hangs on one of our Supermicro servers.
We have a ZFS RAID (mirrored stripped vdevs) and when I use "zfs receive" to 
receive snapshots the whole system hangs for up to ten or even more minutes at 
the end.

Kernel: latest (9.2-RC3)
Adaptec 6805 RAID-Controller provides disks for ZFS via JBOD

/var/log/messages and dmesg do not show anything related to the hangs.

I hope this helps to analyze that issue any further.

Regards,
Nils Pascal Illenseer
