Yes, I can. I am a system administrator who also knows a great deal about storage, and manages a good chuck of the storage servers at my employment. We use ZFS for our backup servers, both onsite, and offsite, and we use them for a couple generic storage servers as well, one of which is constantly under heavy stress, all the time. That server is http://mirrors.xmission.com http://mirrors.xmission.com. I am personally using it on my workstation for a /home mount, and I have it on a highly available KVM 2-node cluster, replicated with GlusterFS using InfiniBand. While I have had networking issues with GlusterFS, which have since been ironed out, I have not had any stability, reliability, or data corruption issues with ZFS. At all. I've been running this cluster for 3 years straight, and it's the cluster that is housing my ZFS documentation at https://pthree.org/category/zfs https://pthree.org/category/zfs ZFS on Linux is absolutely "production ready". While it's true there are some ARC issues floating about, trim support is missing for SSDs, and some other things, remember that ZFS has been stable for a decade. It's just been brought into Linux kernel space with the help of the Solaris Porting Layer (spl) module. Claiming that ZFS on Linux is not stable, and not production ready is nothing more than FUD.
