Anyone using HAST in production / performance?

I would be interested to know how that works out - I tried iscsi
and ZFS a while ago, but my problem with it was that it didnt 
handle failure very well - you took away the remote iscsi drive and
the ZFS layer locked up. Thats why I ended up using ggated + gmirror,
instead of iscsi + zfs. We switched back to ZFS when hast came along, but then
for me it is "fast enough"

My experiences with iscsi were a long time ago though - 2007 or so,
and am sure its rather different now!
