9.1-RC3 GEOM gate stalls ...

[Matthew Grooms]

All,

I was attempting to run some performance tests against a block device 
exported from one host to another using ggated/ggatec. After starting 
bonnie++ on a ufs formatted mount, the process appears to stall at the 
'Reading intelligently' stage. The ggated process appears to respond to 
requests quickly enough ( from looking at the network traffic between 
ggatec ggated ), so I suspect ggatec  is causing the delay.

The issue appears to be simple to re-produce:

1) Export a block device using ggated
2) Import the device using ggatec
3) Format the device using newfs
4) Mount the formatted filesystem
5) Run bonnie++ on the mounted filesystem

Is this a known issue?

Thanks,

-Matthew
