Hi all, I've just seen something weird. On a zpool which looks a bit busy right now (~ 100 read op/s, 100 kB/s) I started a zfs snapshot about an hour ago. Until now, a taking a snapshot took usually at few seconds at most even for largish ~TByte file systems. I don't know if the read IOs are currently related to the snapshot itself or if another user doing this since I have not looked prior to taking the snapshot.
My remaining questions after searching the web: (1) Is it common that snapshots can take this long? (2) Is there a way to stop it if one assumes somethings went wrong? I.e. is there a special signal I could send it?
