The current ZVOL implementation does not explicitly set merge options on ZVOL device queues, which results in the default merge behavior. Explicitly set QUEUE_FLAG_NOMERGES on ZVOL queues allowing the ZIO pipeline to do its work. Initial benchmarks (tiotest with no O_DIRECT) show random write performance going up almost 3X on 8K ZVOLs, even after significant rewrites of the logical space allocation.
