Did you do any tuning to ZFS? There are many tweaks to it, like
putting a cache disk in front of it, or moving the logs to SSD and
such. I haven't run any produciton DBs on ZFS yet, but it sure is
tempting. The speed penalty for the features it gives you (snapshots,
robust against power fails, etc.) is worth the tradeoff.
