We have used it for some time now on a fairly heavily- loaded Ultra 2 machine, utilizing a fairly large part of the ZFS featureset (mirroring, striping, quotas and limits, mountpoints left right and centre, etc.), and found it to be completely stable. We have either not (yet) encountered any sparc64-specific edge cases, or there are none (always the hopeless optimist)... Given that we reported this back in the RC1 days, I'm surprised it's not in.. ;) Then again, we opened no PR.
