Can anyone else confirm read write speeds they get when comparing the two. I've just created a zvol and set it as an iSCSI target for my windows machine. I was expecting better read and write performance using iscsi than the mapped network share but the opposite is true.
I suspected at first that this was because I created a device extent rather than a file extent. I went back and created a file extent and even though there was a slight improvement it still wasn't the performance gain I expected to see.
