Judging from the commits (http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/dev/iscsi/initiator/ ) there haven't been very much (iSCSI specific) activity since imported 14 months ago. Either nobody is using it thus not reporting bugs, or it is working very well ;) So, what I'm wondering is, how stable is this? Anyone using it successfully in production? Checking this list's archive I've seen some people with deadlock problems, but are there anyone using it without these problems? Or is the userbase that small? How about performance? Thanks! -- Johan
