Zfs may be exceptionally nice, but if they want to have anything else running 
on those boxes, it may not be worth the pain.

Also, our one sol 10 x64 server has horrible nfs write performance to linux 
clients. I could never figure it out: something between new and improved Sun 
implementation and (known-b0rked) linux implementation just chokes the 
network link.

If they run into the same problem, an exceptionally nice filesystem 
server-side is not going to be of any use to them.
