[OmniOS-discuss] ISCSI SSD Performance

Hi I am trying to track down a performance issue with my setup.

I have 24 ssds in 6 vdevs (4 drives per) that are then striped. Essentially a raid50. Originally I had a perc h310 and saw similar numbers. I have since switched to a perch h710 and have each drive in raid 0 and presented to the os. In both cases the numbers are the same. I also tried 8 devices per vdev with only 3 vdevs and the numbers were also the same.I am thinking I am tracking down a zfs tunable but I am not sure what to try. My reads are ½ of my writes. Given a raid 50 I was expecting the opposite. The volume is being presented as an iscsi lun. The benchmarks below were run from a vmware guest. The esxi host is connected to the iscsi target via a 10g interface (direct connection).

There is no l2arche, but the entire pool is ssd..
