Hi,

could anyone give recommendations (or share experience) regarding 
using ZFS:  

- FreeBSD 7-Stable (amd64 with 8GB RAM)
  + special tuning necessary (apart from increasing kernel memory
    to 1 or more GB for ZFS)
- Samba 3.2
  + ACLs possible directly under ZFS?
  + recommended compile options?
- NFS
- email (imap)
- jails (I have seen some problems exist with using snaphots within
  jails)

This is on amd64 with 8GB RAM and external disk array (via FC).

Many thanks and best regards,
Holger
