I still haven't got any "warm and fuzzy" responses
yet solidifying ZFS in combination with Firewire or USB enclosures.
I was unable to use zfs (that is "zpool create" or "mkfs -F ufs") on
firewire devices, because scsa1394 would hang the system as
soon as multiple concurrent write commands are submitted to it.
I've had better luck than that in that my "zpool create" worked
and the first data copy (23085 MP3 files, 105Gb) worked very well.
But yes, stress can lock things up nicely on build 51.
I filed bug 6445725 (which disappeared in the scsa1394
bugs.opensolaris.org black hole), submitted a fix and
requested a sponsor for the fix[*], but not much has happened
with fixing this problem in opensolaris.
Let me poke the sponsor about it. It's a P4 now, which I don't
think is high enough. I'd also like to try your fix on my box :-)
