Hello Colin,
  I set a couple of ZFS options a day or two ago, and have bee playing videos 
to see if we still have the problem. The options I set were:

  o zfs set xattr=sa storage
  o zfs set xattr=sa storage/vault
  o zfs set ralatime=on storage
  o zfs set ralatime=on storage/vault

  We've played about four hours of video, and we have not seen the hang.

  Do you still want to pursue this? I could set the options back and do
the trace or leave the options and do the trace, or should we just
consider this fixed? My only concern about the latter option is that the
installation was a default install with Ubuntu 17.10 and it seems these
options should be the default on any linux distro.

  Let me know what you want to do?

Best regards, Colin.

Title:
  zfs frequently hangs (up to 30 secs) during sequential read

Status in zfs-linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Updated to artful (17.10) yesterday. Trying to read (play video) from 
mirrored ZFS disks from an external USB 3 enclosure. Zpool is defined as:
   
  root@hetty:/home/crlb# zpool status
    pool: storage
   state: ONLINE
    scan: resilvered 20K in 0h0m with 0 errors on Fri Oct 20 18:38:49 2017
  config:

        NAME        STATE     READ WRITE CKSUM
        storage     ONLINE       0     0     0
          mirror-0  ONLINE       0     0     0
            sdb     ONLINE       0     0     0
            sdc     ONLINE       0     0     0

  errors: No known data errors
  root@hetty:/home/crlb#

  Found that I could re-create the problem with:

   rsync -av --progress <zfs_file> <internal_ext4_path>

  Also found that:

    dd if=/dev/sdX of=/dev/null status=progress bs=1024 count=10000000

  Where "X" is either "b" or "c" does not hang.

  Installed:

  root@hetty:/home/crlb# apt list --installed | grep -i zfs
  libzfs2linux/artful,now 0.6.5.11-1ubuntu3 amd64 [installed,automatic]
  zfs-zed/artful,now 0.6.5.11-1ubuntu3 amd64 [installed,automatic]
  zfsutils-linux/artful,now 0.6.5.11-1ubuntu3 amd64 [installed]
  root@hetty:/home/crlb#

  Help please.
