Did you tell postgres that the effective_cache_size = Shared Buffers + ARC? I don't include in postgres the L2ARC size as it is not really in memory. Also, I lie to postgres about the random_page_cost and seq_page_cost and set them both to 0.3 since there is so much cached.
In my current test config, I set the effective_cache_size to half the available ram, so roughly 50GBs. I have not tweaked the random_page_cost or seq_page_cost yet.
Set full_page_writes = off since ZFS already takes care of that for you, too.
I currently have the full_page_writes on. I'll disable it and test.
