We had this running with FreeBSD 6.x, but unionfs had issues,

I am not sure exactly when unionfs was re-written...
Sometime during 7-CURRENT but I am not sure if everything was
backported to 6.
It seems like a very relevant feature nowadays, when people
use all these cloud-based systems, which oftentimes have little
resources to run ZFS and UFS is most likely a better choice...
Funny, I have the impression that disk space, RAM and CPU are
plenty compared to the past, so I would prefer ZFS anytime now.
Our next jail box will probably use ZFS dedup with lots of RAM.
Very true. And I love ZFS.
I am talking about cloud installations where VM are created and
destroyed in a fast pace and are mostly small like 1GB of RAM.
UFS is very relevant for such installations. And being able to
be cloud-friendly is a good thing:)
