Nothing dramatic - I've been running my FreeBSD server on a HP
microserver for a touch under a year with no noticeable issues regarding
load. Do something silly (like run benchmarks) and things might get a
little sluggish, but that tends to happen anyway.

It's memory that ZFS likes ... about 1Gbyte per Tbyte. Although I
suspect that advice is a little overdramatic as I've run very
restricted Ldoms with ZFS and had no problem.
