Someone has experiences with ZFS and NFS(v3) in high load environments?

Thanks

Be careful to no do any synchronous writes under ZFS.

By default all NFS writes are synchronous but I assume dovcot sync writes all data anyway so in this case the NFS sync doesn't matter.


Every sync write can take up to 3 seconds of latency (under freebsd,
I didnt test ZFS in linux).

sync writes should take a few ms (they do for me). If you have enough load for them to be a problem you should have enough revenue to afford an SSD as a ZFS write cache / SLOG and then they will no longer be a problem.
