You can change the recordsize of the zpool dynamically, then simply copy
the data directory (with PostgreSQL shut down) to a new directory on
that zpool. This assumes that you have enough space on the zpool, of
course.
We didn't test how it would work to let the files in the Postgres
instance get gradually replaced by "natural" updating.
