t ZIL accelerator, requiring no dedicated ZIL?
If my understanding is correct, a battery backed RAID controller will
ignore cache flush commands and thus the controller cache would be a
very low latency intermediate cache wich is preserved over power failure.

How do you tell how much of your l2arc is populated? I've been looking for a
while now, can't seem to find it.
Must be easy, as this blog entry shows it over time:

I think I'll try one of thise inexpensive battery-backed PCI RAM drives from
Gigabyte and see how much IOPS they can pull.
Another poster, Tracy Bernath, got decent ZIL IOPS from an OCZ Vertex unit.
Dunno if that

So it is apparent, that the SSD has really poor random writes.
But I was under the impression, that the ZIL is mostly sequential
writes or was I misinformed here?
Maybe the cache syncs bring the device to
e?
Maybe the cache syncs bring the device to it's knees?

Intel X-25 M are MLC not SLC, there are very good for L2ARC.
Yes, I'm only using those for L2ARC, I'm planing on getting to Mtro
b of L2ARC with only 4Gb of RAM because ZFS
use memory to allocate and manage L2ARC.
Is there a guideline in which relation L2ARC size should be to RAM?
I could upgrade the server to 8GB, but that's the maximum the i975X
chipset can handle.

I have one answer. The other questions are mostly related to your
raid controller, which I can&#
use HW RAID10 on the storage controller or would
I get better performance out of JBOD + ZFS RAIDZ2?
