> Depending on tuning, you can make it flush to disk more often. It is also highly dependent on how much memory you have.
At the moment: 4GB. I'm about to try upgrading it to 6GB.
Why can't it work like this all the time:
device r/s w/s kr/s kw/s wait svc_t %b
da0 0.0 1907.4 0.0 65494.8 0 0.6 6
ad10 680.7 0.0 87132.0 0.0 35 43.7 92
Effectively, it transfers 8-10MB/s! Took 24h for 1.2TB...

Prefect is not enabled because of RAM < 4GB...
Can you name an tuneable sysctls?
