Thanks for the setup information.
If you have time may you describe your head units a little bit?
How do you configure istgt + zfs for iscsi volumes. On our system I =
often see a lot of IOPS when I write to an exported zvol.=20
Maybe this is due to wrong blocksize config in istgt.
I don't see those high IOPS in NFS exported volumes for example.

Best,

I need to jam more RAM in there and it would be nice to be running =
FreeBSD 10 with some of the newer ZFS code and having access to TRIM. =
Uptime on these servers is over a year.
