I was hoping Roch (from Oracle) would respond, but perhaps he's not hanging out 
on 
zfs-discuss anymore?

Bonnie++ sux as a benchmark. The best analysis of this was done by Roch and 
published
online in the seminal blog post:

I suggest you find a benchmark that more closely resembles your expected 
workload and
do not rely on benchmarks that provide a summary metric.
