Hi Ben. Yes, that's great - thanks.

On the hardware side, i'm seeing people still steer towards having
hardware array controllers when using zfs.. I was hoping to use raidz2
with a bunch of sata disks hanging off of a.n.other generic
controller. Do you have any recommendations on storage controllers? Am
I likely to run into any problems if I use a proper Intel motherboard
with onboard sata controller?

I'd be very interested too to see any performance stats from software
raid configs (of any kind really, but preferably using iscsi) - to get
an idea of what kind of cpu hit we're talking about. I know that's
very broad and fairly useless, but some info is better than none.
