That's an interesting observation.

Could you please try starting with a freshly created pool and writing some data?
I wonder if 'zpool list -v' will show any significant differences between
different FreeBSD versions?
Another thing to check would be 'zdb -mm' but it could be very large.  However,
a difference should be sufficiently small as most of the space would remain unused.

And, just in case, please compare 'zpool get all' and 'zfs get all' between
those two versions.
