No, currently ZFS dedup is not ready for production. There are several bugs are filed, and the most problematic ones are that the system can be rendered unusable for days in some situations. Also, if using dedup, plan well your memory and spend money on l2arc, since it _will_ require either massive amounts of RAM or some good SSDs for l2arc.
