Changes
This issue can occur in situations where additional top-level vdevs have been added to an existing zpool to increase storage. This results in imbalanced vdevs within the zpool where the original vdevs have more data on them than the new ones. When the older vdevs fill up ZFS will spend a lot of time in space_map_load_wait() trying to look for space in other vdevs.
