I wasn't happy that it didn't have ACTIVE/ACTIVE and I also was discouraged by the ability to make it panic. I flirted briefly with OpenIndiana, but that whole platform needs to die as it's so painful to use. The weirdly horrible interactivity wasn't confidence-inspiring either -- why did it take 10 seconds to display "top"? Why were ZFS pool operations so slow? Very strange! This morning I found you actually released gmultipath patches and I must say -- this works FANTASTIC now! I can be writing 500MB/s+ and pull the cables at random and it's nearly transparent in passive and active modes. I urge you to commit this so it gets more testing, but I will be putting FreeBSD9 + gmultipath in production soon. I just need to do some more benchmarks and I might switch the scheduler to 4BSD because this box will be doing nothing but I/O and network traffic and my research indicates ULE is not optimal in that type of a workload.

Thanks for testing the new gmultipath patches! I just want to say that you should test 4BSD/ULE very carefully before making any conclusions because ULE fails in very, very specific edge cases which are not very common. I've done this 4BSD/ULE test just for laughs on an network IO-intensive workload on a 24-core machine and the performance with 4BSD was laughably slow (which is expected as it is of a very old design).
