This box now serves as NFS server with 20 clients.
and has some heavy io (about 30MB/s, lasting for 5 hours
or so) with this patch works fine. (2 channels,
each channel is 1 LD running at 320MB/s). Though you said
this patch solves multiple LUN problem, I think this
also solve my problem here.
Please consider merge to RELENG_5_3. Thanks.
