I'm using ZFS on geli on my production server with 2 SATA2 disks.
Just create and attach the geli devices in /dev and then create
a zpool i.e. with
# zpool create crypt /dev/ad3.eli /dev/ad6.eli
Works splendid.
I'm using ZFS on three geli encrypted slices,
the only problem I ran into was:

"zpool scrub causes panic if geli vdevs detach on last close"
Thanks for your feedback. I'm going to give it another try.
I used to run ZFS on top of geli but I had kernel panics.
I changed the providers to normal non-geli disks but still had
panics. I found out later that the panics were kernel memory related
(kmem_malloc) since ZFS wants a lot. I increased two of
the kernel memory parameters and haven't seen a panic again.
vm.kmem_size: 512M
vm.kmem_size_max: 512M
I guess I'll have to try the geli disks again now that the
memory has been increased.
