ZFS borks on low memory/high io situations.  Thinks have improved a lot
since your version.  The first thing I would try to do is upgrade and 9.0
isn't supported anymore regardless of the ZFS issue.  Migrating to STABLE
is probably your best chance of success, but 9.1 probably would work too.
 You also didn't indicate amd64/i386 or any other system specs.  IIRC,
vm.kmem_size
had to set higher even on AMD64 for that era.
