Journalled softupdates is much better than mere journalling. I don't know what the current state of ZFS on Linux is, but last time I looked it was done with a very fragile FUSE setup. I remember hearing rants from FreeBSD VM people about how Linux did superpages wrong, but I don't know any of the details there. |

The license doesn't allow to distribute a binary build of it, but you can build your own rpm and deb packages and install it to your own servers.
(According to their FAQ: "In a nutshell [...] This means that a single derived work of the Linux kernel and ZFS cannot be legally distributed."
Honestly, besides some quick tests I don't have any experience to judge how stable it is, but definitely better than the fragile fuse setup you are mentioning.
Anyone has more experience with it?
