Are you saying that it's a design flaw of ZFS that we haven't yet implemented 
remote replication?  I would consider that a missing feature, not a design 
flaw.  There's nothing in the design of ZFS to prevent such a feature (and in 
fact, several aspects of the design that would work very well with such a 
feature, eg as used with "zfs send").

You mean zfs_nocacheflush?  Admittedly, this is a hack.  We're working on 
making this simply do the right thing, based on the capabilities of the 
underlying storage device.

I'm not sure what you mean.  ZFS supports any storage, and works great on the 
X4500.
