Mostly it's a problem of manageability. However due to some bugs which
are not fixed yet in some cases it would help if you create more file
systems like if your applications issues fdsync on a file and there're
more writes pending to other files.

It's only 4-5 file systems - I would probably create file systems
instead of directories. And with zfs you don't have to think which one
will need how much space in advance which is really great.
