so I am getting expected results locally. The network infrastructure is as 
follows:

2 esxi hosts with intel x520 10g Ethernet cards. They are directly connected 
via twinx cables to intel x520 network cards in the zfs box. So there is no 
switch in between. Mtu is set on the zfs host as well as the esxi hosts to 
9000. Results from both esxi hosts are the same.

Since I can get 700-800MBps write, you would assume the link could handle more 
than 350MBps read...

There may be some vmware issue I am hitting, but I had the same setup before 
with slower disks and I netted better performance in vmware. Are there any 
settings in Comstar I can look at that could be causing this?

Have you tried the connecting to the volume form another IO host to eliminate vmware as the cause?
