That's interesting - 'zpool iostat' shows quite small read volume to any pool however if I run 'zpool iostat -v' then I can see that while read volume to a pool is small, read volume to each disk is actually quite large so in summary I get over 10x read volume if I sum all disks in a pool than on pool itself. These data are consistent with iostat. So now even zpool claims that it actually issues 10x (and more) read volume to all disks in a pool than to pool itself. Now - why???? It really hits performance here...
