I'll respond and say that the current FreeNAS is based on FreeBSD 7, where ZFS
was an experimental filesystem. I think a system based on FreeBSD 8 will
provide a better comparison.
I'm a tad confused about the whole "sharing a ZFS filesystem over iSCSI". I
thought iSCSI was used to eport LUNs that you then put a filesystem on with a
client.
iSCSI on FreeBSD is fairly slow compared to other solutions, I think there is
some very preliminary work to fix that going on.
