Is anyone else running zfs on root and running into very slow finds?   =
The /etc/periodic/daily/450.status-security can take over a noisy HD =
thrashing hour to finish, the culprit being the find that crawls the =
filesystem.

I'm hoping there is some I'm not sure if there if some simple zfs tuning =
I need to do to improve the performance on this.  I'm looking for what =
others use for their ZFS settings.

Thanks!
