I think zil_disable may actually make sense.

How about a zil comprised of two mirrored iSCSI vdevs formed from a SSD on each box?

I would not have believed that this is a useful idea except that I have seen "IOPS offload" to a server on the network work extremely well. Latencies on gigabit ethernet are pretty small these days.

Yes, Gbe only adds about 100us to the latency and when using a raw SSD as a backing store it should be a lot better than what the OP is doing now (and he can use one of the less costly models).
