Yes, it's eris from http://www.apache.org/dev/machines.

Thanks for the pointer. The port description says: "The primary purpose
is to provide a way to decode MCE output from the FreeBSD kernel into
something more human-readable" --- how to get the "raw" MCE output? I
don't see "mce" mentioned in `sysctl -a` or /var/log/messages.

FreeBSD 8.2, zpool v15, zfs v4

We have the default setting, but the default is greater than 5 seconds:

eris,0:/boot% sysctl -a | grep txg
vfs.zfs.txg.write_limit_override: 0
vfs.zfs.txg.synctime: 5
vfs.zfs.txg.timeout: 30

Is there somewhere documentation of what the txg timeout _is_ (as
opposed to what are the effects of changing the knob)? Or is the only
documentation in the source tree?

Thanks!
