A read of data in the disk cache will be read from the disk cache. You can't tell the disk to ignore its cache and read directly from the plater.

Not easy in software. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
