I had an unkillable MySQLd a while ago that required reboot (pre-RELENG_7 
CURRENT). It was in uninterruptable sleep, but I can't swear to whether it 
was in zfs state. This was on a quadcore core 2 duo.

I can do some sysbenching on a dual core machine with and without ZFS, but it 
sounds like that won't be more useful than what you already have available.
