It wasn't a completely full volume so I wasn't getting the classic 'no space'
issue.
What I did end up doing was booting OpenIndiana (build 147) which seemed tohave
more succes clearing up the space. I also set up some scripts to clear out
space slower. Deleting a 4GB file would take 1-2
No datasets in the pool.
As another data point I've been slowing trying to clear things out but
eventually the IO operations hang.

I have a zpool that once it hit 96% full the performance degraded horribly.
So, in order to get things better I'm trying to clear out some space. The
problem I have is after I've deleted a directory it no longer shows on the
filesystem level (ls) but the free space isn't cleared up. After a
Oh, a few items to highlight.
There are no snapshots - never have been on this volume.
It's not just this directory in the example - it's any directory or file. The
system was running fine up until it hit 96%. Also, a full scrub of the file
system was done (took nearly two days).

In the process of replacing a raidz1 of four 500GB drives with four 1.5TB
drives on the third one I ran into an interesting issue. The process was to
remove the old drive, put the new drive in and let it rebuild.
The problem was the third drive I put in had a hardware fault. That caused

I had a friend rebuild his system and instead of running a zpool import he
ran a zpool create. Sadly this means he has an empty raidz disk now. A
zpool import only shows the last zpool he created. a zpool import -D shows
now destroyed pools for importing.
Any suggestions as to data recovery
