If I were to deploy ZFS for any important deployment, personally I'd use Nexenta for that As an aside (apologies if I've mentioned this before), the Sequoia BlueGene/Q supercomputer currently being built for LLNL will use Lustre as its 50PB cluster filesystem, using ZFS on Linux as its back end and, needless to say, has some fairly high performance targets (512-1024 MB/s for streaming writes I believe). ^^^ minor correction - that's GB/s :-)
