Hello!

Last night I was trying to get KDE5 to start up on my new machine, and a couple of KDE's processes kept crashing, dumping cores like the one below:

   -rw-------  1 mi    wheel  45780992 Jul 23 22:28 ksplashqml.core

After, maybe, 10 such rounds -- each generating two core-dump -- ZFS hung... The machine was otherwise responsive, but any attempts to access the ZFS filesystems would hang as NFS would, when the remote server stops responding...

Pressing Ctrl-T would show the process in the state named "zfs". According to "systat -vm", all four disks involved in the raidz1 were writing in excess of 100MB/s, so I let it be for a few minutes, but nothing improved -- and the writes continued...

I pressed Ctrl-Alt-Del, which initiated a shutdown, but the shutdown hung as well ("some processes would not die") and I had to do a power cycle...

The sole zpool consists of 4 3TB drives and a 16GB log (on an SSD) thus:

            NAME        STATE     READ WRITE CKSUM
            aldan       ONLINE       0     0     0
              raidz1-0  ONLINE       0     0     0
                da0     ONLINE       0     0     0
                ada1    ONLINE       0     0     0
                da2     ONLINE       0     0     0
                da1     ONLINE       0     0     0
            logs
              ada0e     ONLINE       0     0     0

It reports no data-errors after reboot. There are multiple filesystems on it, among them /home. The box is running a very recent FreeBSD-11/amd64 (r336626). It has 4 Xeon cores and 128GB of RAM. The pool was created under FreeBSD-10 -- after this incident I upgraded it.

What happened? Thanks! Yours,

   -mi
