Re: Desperate with 870 QVO and ZFS

One perhaps important note!! When this happens... almost all processes appear in top in the following state: txg state or txg-> bio.... perhaps should the the vfs.zfs.dirty_data_max, vfs.zfs.txg.timeout, vfs.zfs.vdev.async_write_active_max_dirty_percent be increased, decreased.... I'm afraid of doing some chage ana finally ending up with an inestable server.... I'm not an expert in handling these values.... Any recommendation?.

We though that meanwhile you didn't exceed it's capacity (the capacity of the speeding buffer) no speed problem arises.
