I also have an 32-bit box running zfs/pf, and it's pretty stable (though
I'm knoking on wood right now :) ):
[emz@witchdoctor:~]> uptime
23:25 up 291 days, 15:44, 1 user, load averages: 0,04 0,04 0,00
but it's running 8.2-STABLE:
8.2-STABLE FreeBSD 8.2-STABLE #0: Tue Sep 20 19:24:35 YEKST 2011
I've also stopped using zfs swap, I'm still not sure whether this added
some stability or not, but still. To be honest it's running without any
swap last 291 days. :P
This machine has only 2 gigs of ram. It's a file storage, dozens of
users use it. I've seen some zfs panicks, I've added options
KVA_PAGES=512, and it's working like that. So maybe you should try this.
I should also say that it's pf is simple and basic (a couple of
pass/block rules, nothing complicated).
