I have an interesting issue with one single ZFS filesystem in a pool.
All the other filesystems are fine, and can be mounted, snapshoted,
destroyed, etc.  But this one filesystem, if I try to do any operation
on it (zfs mount, zfs snapshot, zfs destroy, zfs set <anything>), it
spins the system until all RAM is used up (wired), and then hangs the
box.  The zfs process sits in tx -> tx_sync_done_cv state until the
box locks up.  CTRL+T of the process only ever shows this:
    load: 0.46  cmd: zfs 3115 [tx->tx_sync_done_cv)] 36.63r 0.00u 0.00s 0% 2440k

Anyone come across anything similar?  And found a way to fix it, or to
destroy the filesystem?  Any suggestions on how to go about debugging
this?  Any magical zdb commands to use?

The filesystem only has 5 MB of data in it (log files), compressed via
LZJB for a compressratio of ~6x.  There are no snapshots for this
filesystem.

Dedupe is enabled on the pool and all filesystems.

System is running 64-bit 9-RELEASE:
FreeBSD alphadrive.sd73.bc.ca 9.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE #0
r229803: Sun Jan  8 00:43:00 PST 2012
root@alphadrive.sd73.bc.ca:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/ZFSHOST90  amd64

Hardware is fairly generic:
  - SuperMicro H8DGi-F motherboard
  - AMD Opteron 6128 CPU (8 cores)
  - 24 GB of DDR3 RAM
  - 3x SuperMicro AOC-USAS-L8i SATA controllers
  - 24x harddrives ranging from 500 GB to 2.0 TB (6 of each kind in
raidz2 vdevs)
  - 64 GB SSD partitioned for OS, swap, with 32 GB for L2ARC
