Thank you Bill for your clear description. Now I have to find a way to justify myself with my head office that after spending 100k+ in hw and migrating to "the most advanced OS" we are running about 8 time slower :)
Anyway I have a problem much more serious than rsync process speed. I hope you'll help me solving it out! Our situation: /data/a /data/b /data/zones/ZONEX (whole root zone) As you know I have a process running "rsync -ax /data/a/* /data/b" for about 14hrs. The problem is that, while that rsync process is running, ZONEX is completely unusable because of the rsync I/O load. Even if we're using FSS, Solaris seems unable to give a small amount of I/O resource to ZONEX's activity ... I know that FSS doesn't deal with I/O but I think Solaris should be smarter .. To draw a comparison, FreeBSD Jail doesn't suffer from this problem ... thank, Gino This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
