RELENG_5, snapshots and disk lock time

[Dmitry Morozovsky]

Dear colleagues,

dumping the snapshot of 140G ufs2 fyle system under contemporary RELENG_5 I 
found that during mksnap_ffs file system is unresponsible even for reading for 
more than 3 minutes (it's on modern SATA disk with 50+ MBps linear transfer). 
Is it normal?

Sincerely,
D.Marck                                     [DM5020, MCK-RIPE, DM3-RIPN]
