I would not call those things as problems, more like setting proper expectations. My understanding is that enabling write cache helps by providing I/O concurrency for drives that do not implement other form of Command Queuing. In other cases, WCE should not buy much if anything. I'd be interested in analysing any cases that shows otherwise... -r _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
