OK.  I'll try these out.  We do have ufs_WRITES enabled with the
following parameters:

  set ncsize                      =   257024
  set autoup                      =       90
  set bufhwm                      =    15000
  set tune_t_fsflushr             =       15
  set ufs:ufs_HW                  = 16777216
  set ufs:ufs_LW                  =  8388608
