Just for the record, this is not ZFS related. The same issue shows up with VB
and UFS. I am running 11 where AIO is integrated into the kernel, so I'll try
the tuning advice and see what happens.

In my case it produced several crashes in my Window 7 client while suspending
the VM and many hangs of the VM. Worst case was when the virtual disk required
a disk check which, in turn hung repeatedly, though eventually it did complete
and the system is running again.

Can AIO be disabled? I was looking at kern.features.aio.
