I uploaded to 5.3-12 last Friday, and after expend the weekend trying to find what was going on with my zfs pools crawling to a halt, varying from 0.5 to 2MB/sec (they're usually go from 100 to 250mb/sec)!
Today I remembered that I had updated last friday, and try to reboot on 5.3-11... to my surprise, my zfs pools are back to 100-250mb/sec!!!
booting on 5.3-12 again, they are back to "slow motion mode".
I have no other conclusion but that 5.3-12 have some weird problem with ZFS.
So, in case someone is having trouble with zfs disk speed, try to boot on 5.3-11!!
It was a huge scare over the weekend, because I thought all my pools where failing... But thank god it was just the update!!
weird thing is that there was NO error messages... nothing!! just a huge slow down...
my 2 cents!
