Subject:   Strange write speed between /file and /tmp/file (may be related to 4k advanced format)

Hi,

I have a FreeBSD 9.2 64 bit installed in a VM.
The host is Windows 7 with vmware workstation, the host is using an advanced format (4k) harddisk.


I have noticed there is strange write speed between /file and /tmp/file.
/dev/da0p3 is UFS2 created by default installer.

I am thinking if the problem is caused by disk alignment.
da0p3 starting sector is 786594, which seems not aligned by 4k (786594 *512/4096=98324.25)
The dd result is repeatable.
