freebsd stable - Oct 2010 - Serious zfs slowdown when mixed with another file system (ufs/msdosfs/etc.).

Hi All,

Do we have any new information about this issue (fixes, work arounds 
etc.)? Any input will be highly useful.

http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2010-July/057682.html

I am experiencing kind of same problem on FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE-p1 i386 
2G RAM.

Thanks,
Andriy

I expressed myself incorrectly. Sorry. :-(

Do you Andriy :-) or anybody else from list(s) have more info how to
fix or work around this issue?

First, I recommend to try to upgrade to the recent stable/8.

Understood, but is it possible to apply "local" ZFS+UFS related
changes? Because STABLE will bring all deltas which was accumulated
since RELEASE and I really concern about stability of this box (which is
router/firewall/mail server). Other people depend on it.

I mean some thing like freebsd-update for FreeBSD-STABLE monthly  
snapshots. You are right, update from sources is working perfectly and  
I used it before freebsd-update came along. But I found freebsd-update  
way more convenient.

Anyway thank you all for all your tips.
