I see the trend here. That guy is determined to shove his opinion down
the throat of everybody. Stop it, tis most annoying.

Back to the topic. ZFS support has matured greatly since the last time
you tried it, currently freebsd supports zfs pool v. 28 in the last
updates. Try it, it won't disappoint you.

Agreed. Wojciech Puchar is in my 'probable troll' file at this point, from his interactions on several topics.

ZFS is stable and tested, and works well if you have the resources. That means RAM as well as hard disks - and if you don't have the resources, most of ZFS's advantages wouldn't be coming into play anyway. I have seen no reason to believe at this point (under FreeBSD 9) that it is any less stable than any other filesystem. It is still fairly new relatively, but I and others have used it with no problems, on boxes of various sizes. Getting the best performance may take some tweaking on occasion, but in general it should be very good. (And getting the best performance out of a multi-terabyte drive array will take tweaking no matter what file system you are trying.)

My one note to the above would be to advise against using it for swap - unless you have enough RAM to make sure you never swap. It doesn't do well in that role, in my experience. (Though that was under a slightly earlier version.)
