Numbers, please. So far in all interesting benchmarks it actually
was slower. But when they're faster than XFS somewhere I'd defintly
be interesting in looking at why this is true and if possible and
important enough fix it.

Google still is working but .. (from my bookmarks):

also some other interestig numbers can be founnd on:

Probably more can be find on looking for zfs+benchmark on http://blogs.sun.com/

IMO real power ZFS shows on growing number if phisical devices so don't look so close on this kind of documents because usualy it was prepared on limited number of devices.
