What I'm noticing, I wouldn't call "lag", but rather inconsistent playback. It only seems to happen when playing a video over home sharing to an iPad. It doesn't happen all the time either, seems to be random. What will happen is the "Videos" app will be come unresponsive while streaming the video. The video will keep playing, but the controls of the video become unresponsive. I have to kill the "Videos" app & wait for the playback to cease on it's own, usually about 2 mins later. This does not seem to happen when playing via Apple TV.
I don't think it would be considered a bug with the Videos app b/c it didn't happen when my iTunes library was on an HFS+ volume. I'm thinking there's some HFS+ specific metadata that's missing, which is causing the problems with the streaming. Almost as if it has something to do with seeking the correct time in the video.
The only "race" errors I see in the logs now are when I try to play music, not videos as per when I had the drives mirrored.
