> The only disk more heavily loaded than usual during a mirror vdev resilvering is the other disk in the vdev β which might sound bad, but remember that itβs only being heavily loaded with reads, whereas all of the remaining disks in a RAIDZ vdev are being much more heavily loaded with writes as well as reads during a resilver.
Why is that happening? There's no reason to perform a bunch of writes to those drives.
