There is nothing odd, just t= he long long scrubs. This machine was started with 4x 1TB (now 4x 4TB) and = scrub was slow with 1TB disks too. This machine - HP ML110 G8) was my first= machine with ZFS. If I remember it well it was FreeBSD 7.0, now running 11= .2. Scrub was / is always about one week.

If you have spinning rust, raise vfs.zfs.top_maxinflight so they'll do fewer seeks. I used to set it to 8192 on machines with 32GB of RAM. Raising vfs.zfs.resilver_min_time_ms to 5000 helps a little, too. -Alan
