except for one bug which has been fixed which had to do with consuming lots of CPU to find a free block I don't think you are right. You don't have to set recordsize to smaller value for small files. Recordsize property sets a maximum allowed recordsize but other than that it is being selected automatically when file is being created so for small files their recordsize will be small even if it is set to default 128KB.

Didn't we hear on this list just recently that zfs no longer writes short tail blocks (i.e. zfs behavior has been changed)? Did I misunderstand?
