Hope this comment isn't too ignorant, but how does it compare to gfs2?

It doesn't. GFS2 is a clustered filesystem, ZFS is not. GFS2 is for sharing a single filesystem between multiple nodes, with a distributed lock manager to avoid corruption. It's complex to fix when it breaks, generally fairly slow and very few people need it - for most users, NFS (especially v4 and up) is a better way of accomplishing the same end goal.
