I'm not using ZFS in my VMs for data integrity (the host already

snapshot and replication works fine on the host, acting on the zvol.
Some of my deployments have hundreds of filesystems in
an organized hierarchy, with delegated permissions and automated
snapshots, send/recvs, and clones for various operations.
what kind of zpool do you use in the guest, to avoid unwanted additional
redundancy?
did you benchmark the space or time efficiency of ZFS vs. UFS?
in some bsd related meeting this year i asked allan jude for a bhyve
level null mount, so that we could access at / inside the guest some
subtree of the host, and avoid block devices and file systems
altogether. right now i have to use nfs for that, which is irritating.
