Unless you have a specific reason for using gmirror I would strongly
advise trying ZFS instead, it will definitely support TRIM in that
config and comes with a host of other benefits too :)

The specific reason is performance and memory consumption. We need every piece of performance and all memory to MySQL daemon, so this is why gmirror was choosen. We have ZFS on other purposes machines for years (from 7.x days), so I can say "I have a lot of experiences" (good and bad too).
In some tests, ZFS is about 50% slower than UFS.

What about graid(8) mirror instead of gmirror(8)? Is there better support for TRIM on UFS?
