I'm doing some experimenting with iscsi and nfs, we have 2 Intel 750 PCI ssd's in our box.
Sync is set to always.
We have one drive set for zil and one for l2arc.
I'm wondering if L2Arc is more effective with NFS
or with iSCSI
It gets a little blurry when I read that nfs would appear to be the better option because the vmdk files would be sitting right on the file system vs iscsi that would be sitting within the iscsi extent.
Has anyone spent some time on this?
Are there any suggestions on some tests I could run?
