We use FreeBSD 7 including ZFS as the storage server. The system is mirroring a lot of data every day via rsync to the local zfs pool and offering all data via ftp/rsync and http to the end user. We have a few terabyte traffic every week and a lot of i/o load. After a few tweaks (vfs.zfs.arc_max etc) FreeBSD 7.x is running without any problems since a few months. Even with a few crashes at the beginning, we never encountered any data loss with zfs. I'm just talking about FreeBSD 7.x and not FreeBSD current. But current is not considered as production ready.
