High priority threads are handling ZIL writes. While there is no ZIL compression, there is encryption, checksuming and RAIDZ math. We've found that on large systems 1 taskq with 5 threads can be a bottleneck for throughput, IOPS or both. Instead of just bumping number of threads with a risk of overloading CPUs and increasing latency, switch to using TQ_FRONT mechanism to increase sync write requests priority within standard write threads. Do not do it on Illumos, since its TQ_FRONT implementation is inherently unfair. FreeBSD and Linux don't have this problem, so we can do it there.
