We also optimized the taskq implementation in zfsonlinux/spl@3c6ed54. These changes significantly improved unlink performance to acceptable levels. This patch further reduces time spent spinning on this lock by randomly dispatching the work items over multiple independent task queues. The Illumos ZFS developers stated that this lock contention only arose after "3329 spa_sync() spends 10-20% of its time in spa_free_sync_cb()" was landed. It's not clear if 3329 affects the Linux port or not. I didn't see spa_free_sync_cb() show up in oprofile sessions while unlinking large files, but I may just not have used the right test case. I tested unlinking a 1 TB of data with and without the patch and didn't observe a meaningful difference in elapsed time. However, oprofile showed that the percent time spent in taskq_thread() was reduced from about 16% to about 5%. Aside from a possible slight performance benefit this may be worth landing if only for the sake of maintaining consistency with upstream.
