Hi Jeremy,

Info is:

FreeBSD freenas.n.bli.openaccess.org 8.2-RELEASE-p2 FreeBSD =
8.2-RELEASE-p2 #0: Tue Jul 12 12:11:37 PDT 2011     =
jpaetzel@servant.iXsystems.com:/b/home/jpaetzel/sf_freenas_build/obj.amd64=
/b/home/jpaetzel/sf_freenas_build/FreeBSD/src/sys/FREENAS.amd64  amd64


Also, the problem I am seeing with the mvs driver seems suspiciously =
close to a problem with ahci driver that is patched in 9-CURRENT =
apparently by disabling NCQ?

http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=3D20412

The problem only occurs under high I/O - basically I can force it to =
occur by kicking off a zfs scrub while there is also about 300 IOPS of =
NFS traffic at the same time.
