Re: Swapping on ZFS - stability issue

I'll see if I can confirm behavior on a more recent CURRENT. The above was on
CURRENT:s from 1-2 months ago in both cases.

Confirmed on CURRENT cvsup:ed today (2007-09-08). However, the speed
at which swap was filling was much faster - on par with swap on
non-ZFS. But the machine still effectively froze, save the
console/ping, after a few seconds.

Also, I forgot to say this is all on amd64 machines.
