Did you measure this on a few hardwares and workloads?

Before asking firs you must try look on current ZFS on FUSE discuss phorums/docu .. like on: http://groups.google.com/group/zfs-fuse/feed/rss_v2_0_msgs.xml

ZFS on Solaris provides for many workloads better speed than any Linux technology on the same hardware but ZFS ond FUSE in current form provides lower speed than now avalaible Linux technologies.

Example http://groups.google.com/group/zfs-fuse/msg/5b10c69707a46c07:

"According to bonnie, I see 125 MB/s reads on ext3+RAID5, 65 MB/s on ZFS+RAID5 (using Linux's software RAID) and 20 MB/s on ZFS+raidz (using the same raw drives). Writes are also proportionally slower. The real performance hit with ZFS-FUSE was random accesses for lots of small files. The bonnie++ results showed something like 75 random seeks for ZFS vs 470 for ext3 (..)"

On the same phorun you can find threads with discuss about utilize treading under FUSE.

(very simmilar case to ALSA and mixing in user space ..

Audio is about guaranteed latency, not "speed".

You meam "guaranteed worser latency" ? excelent 8-)
