Thanks...Now I think I understand...

Let me summarize it andd let me know if I'm wrong.

Disabling ZIL converts all synchronous calls to asynchronous which makes ZSF to 
report data acknowledgment before it actually was written to stable storage 
which in turn improves performance but might cause data corruption in case of 
server crash.

Is it correct ?

In my case I'm having serious performance issues with NFS over ZFS.
My NFS Client is ESXi so the major question is there risk of corruption for 
VMware images if I disable ZIL ?


Thanks.
