I have to come back and face the shame;  this was a total newbie mistake by 
myself.

I followed the ZFS shortcuts for noobs guide off bigadmin; 
http://wikis.sun.com/display/BigAdmin/ZFS+Shortcuts+for+Noobs

What that had me doing was creating a UFS filesystem on top of a ZFS volume, so 
I was using only 2 layers of ZFS.

I just re-did this against end-to-end ZFS, and the results are pretty freaking 
impressive;  ZFS is handily outrunning the hardware RAID.  Bonnie++ is 
achieving 257 mb/sec write, and 312 mb/sec read. 

My apologies for wasting folks time; this is my first experience with a solaris 
of recent vintage.
