          If you are using VMWare, thus mpt(4) is purely virtual, I would suggest changing it to something more simple, like ICH10.



          Otherwise I suggest you play with camcontrol tags, either increasing or decreasing queue length.



          If you'll chose to reprovision disks using another driver, notice that SAS -> SATA controller change may result in device naming change, probably /dev/daX will become /dev/adaX, so unless you are using zfs or mounting your disks via disk labels, you'll have to edit /etc/fstab.



          As about your gstat output - there's clearly something wrong with it, probably to the nature of the virtual environment support in FreeBSD. 600% load is nonsense. I suggest you report this into the FreeBSD Bugzilla.



          P.S. The advice to change disk provisioning controller type still stands.
          P.P.S. Or. Or I would try to lover the queue length of the mpt(4) to 128 or even 64.

          • Thanks for your answer @drookie, please let me get back with a gstat snapshot to start with. The man page says that novice users (like me), should stay away from camcontrol - sounds a bit scary.

          • Your'e right, but this time I advise you so. I tried this by myself on mpt(4) with LSI 1064 controller family, no devastating or even harmful consequencies encountered (though I didn't notice any improvements too, in my case). But you're right, it's your equipment. I updated my answer too, please notice changes.

          Thanks for your answer @drookie, please let me get back with a gstat snapshot to start with. The man page says that novice users (like me), should stay away from camcontrol - sounds a bit scary.

          Your'e right, but this time I advise you so. I tried this by myself on mpt(4) with LSI 1064 controller family, no devastating or even harmful consequencies encountered (though I didn't notice any improvements too, in my case). But you're right, it's your equipment. I updated my answer too, please notice changes.
