Is this then hinting that ZFS testing is pointing to problems in the new stack?

rsync perhaps exonerated if local disk-to-disk doesn't show it. But what of ssh?

Does it happen with other-than-ZFS rsync use at comparable load?

Or on the older stack - with zfs or other load?

Not 'suggesting' - just questioning.
