Not sure what you mean by "doing snapshots from our end"? Znapzend is just a perl script that issues calls to regular ZFS commands based upon schedules stored as ZFS metadata, so these are just regular ZFS snapshots.

I have been experiencing daily GPFs since upgrading a stable platform to 6.1. Once or twice per day, the machine goes into a series of soft lockups that can only be recovered by power cycling the box. The problem appears to be ZFS related as it is usually triggered immediately after a znapzend...

- Renesas / NEC - µPD720202 USB 3.0...

Once the card is installed, I get the following error during host boot (v4.4):

I have a recent 4.4 installation that uses a mirrored ZFS root pool on two USB 3.0 SSD thumb drives. The drives are Corsair Voyager GS 64GB sticks with a claimed read speed of 295MB/s and write speeds of 170MB/s, however I am experiencing continuous IO Delays on this pool of between 15% and 30%...
