Recently I had a system with an incomplete snapshot. The destination system hung in the middle of a zfs recv. It ended up taking about 75 GB of kernel memory to destroy that incomplete snapshot. Yet destroying another copy of that same snapshot took less than 6 GB of memory.
Does a destroy of a snapshot take a different path through the code than destroying an incomplete snapshot (as part of a zpool import) ? Disclaimer: I am a sysadmin and NOT a developer. I _could_ look at the source, but I'm not sure it would tell me what I am looking for. -- {--------1---------2---------3---------4---------5---------6---------7---------} Paul Kraus -> Senior Systems Architect, Garnet River ( http://www.garnetriver.com/ ) -> Sound Coordinator, Schenectady Light Opera Company ( http://www.sloctheater.org/ ) -> Technical Advisor, Troy Civic Theatre Company -> Technical Advisor, RPI Players _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
