I am currently running:
FreeNAS-8.3.1-RELEASE-p2-x64 (r12686+b770da6_dirty) on
Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 CPU 530 @ 2.93GHz on a
Intel INTEL DH55TC mobo with
12GB of Memory and
3x3TB Seagate ST3000DM001s RAIDZ1.
The mobo has Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network card.
These were LAN SpeedTest results on my LAN before the upgrade to 9.1.1.
And these post upgrade to FreeNAS-9.1.1-RELEASE-x64 (a752d35)
And then back to 8.3.1-p2
all with 1024 MB of data. ( I did try with other sizes as well; all giving similar results so omitting)
It does seem that ZFS under 9.1.1 is less forgiving than under 8.3.1 . Since a have observed quite a few others who are facing similar issues , would appreciate if someone could advise a way to optimize ZFS for current hardware. I can at best add another 4GB to the current config but I suspect that it won't make too much difference.
