Ah yes, the zap shrinking bug, that was silly, but as the one I mentioned illustrates, not all of them (or even necessarily most of them, few though there have been) originate with ZoL. Have you tried reporting the bug you're having with send/recv? I imagine people would care about that kind of reproducible failure. Re: FBSD versus ZoL, go with what works for you. If something is working well enough, I'm not going to advocate changing it. (This tends to be an unpopular opinion among other people though.)
