IIRC Linux nfs server will commit all nfs requests once they are in
memory, even for metadata ops, while solaris nfs/zfs will commit after
they are written to disks - so by default you could see big
perfromance difference between Linux and Solaris in nfs serving. If
you want the same behavior on Solaris then disable ZIL.
