I haven't tried the others but have tried out ext4 and zfs.
For me, zfs made everything too complicated and came with a significant performance impact.
I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong but there wasn't even an option to add another disk an existing vdev. How would one upgrade storage if this is the case?
I had a much easier time passing through the drives directly to the VMs and setting up LVM on them.
