Go re-read that blog entry:
If you do not penalize ZFS with double checksums, you can note
that we are within 6% of our best UFS number. So 6% gives you
provable data integrity, unlimited snapshots, no fsck, and all
the other good features. Quite good in my book :-) Of course,
this number is only going to get better as more performances
enhancements make it into the ZFS code.

...and those numbers were from last year (2007) on a synthetic OLTP
workload.
I would suggest that Pao follow Neel's reccomendations about tuning your
database, and also look at his I/O configuration.
