nfs, with the server running zfs "raid10", and the guest as an nfs client, 
using the "bridge" network, is as fast for normal file i/o (like un-tarring a 
big file) as native zfs on the server, and is as fast as "ufs" on the client 
using raw "zvol" from the server. so you have choices, and none of them are 
non-performant.
