Hi,
I have some questions regarding compression on zfs and freenas.
I have a box with 2xXeon Dual core cpus (with hyperthreading enabled) and 16GB ram
Grepping dmesg reveals the following
cpu0 (BSP): APIC ID: 0
cpu1 (AP/HT): APIC ID: 1
cpu2 (AP): APIC ID: 2
cpu3 (AP/HT): APIC ID: 3
cpu4 (AP): APIC ID: 4
cpu5 (AP/HT): APIC ID: 5
cpu6 (AP): APIC ID: 6
cpu7 (AP/HT): APIC ID: 7
My ZFS dataset is configured with compression on (lzjb)
I realise that nfs is multi-threaded and assume that when copying lzjb will thus run on each nfs thread. Am I correct ?
Will having hyperthreading turned on also overload the HT "cores" and thus impact the performance ?
Kind regards,
Lucas
