>Description:
This isn't so much a problem as it is an RFE.  Basically, the SHA256 checksum code within ZFS looks like it could use a little helping hand.  On my limited testing, it would appear that Solaris 11 has at least a 20-25% edge in efficiency when doing SHA256 checksumming for ZFS.  IANAP, but it would be extremely nice to be able to have the same (or better) efficiency for ZFS on FreeBSD.  I have not done specific testing with Fletcher4, but that also seemed to be slightly better tuned in Solaris 11 as well.
