We have seen the same issue on freenas 8.2 which is a patched freebsd 8.2.
Performance dropped from somewhat 700MByte/sec to 2MByte/sec on the main NAS system.
I couldn't find the problem in time so we rebooted. Uptime was around 150 days.
After reboot everything was back to normal.
We will reinstall the system with a stock freebsd 9 as no GUI is needed anymore.


best,
