There's a lot of uma_* stuff in there.  Just curious, what's the following
sysctl set to:

vfs.zfs.zio.use_uma

Back in the 8.x days, it was recommended to set it to 0 due to bugs:

No idea if this is still the case or not, but you may want to try toggling
that sysctl and see if it makes a difference.
