Yes, it's interesting to consider the possible real world performance. ZIL writes, even by DDRDrive's stats, are very closely clustered around the tail of the ZIL, with most seeks being to near locations - it's certainly not going to seek more than 8 gig away. So probably just leaving it at one big partition would be fine too.

The ZIL is not used for anything but to replay pending synchronous writes if the system unexpectedly reboots. It is not used as a source of data while the system is running. It is normally a write-only device.
