Yeap, that was my thinking too. We could give away 2 or 3GB of that to the web server/login server. The major benefit is the ability to snapshot/clone with ease, but that's just administrative nicities when you think about it. As for resource allocation, we can actually add or remove resources (CPU/RAM) to each LDOM after it's been created anyway, and it'll take effect the next time that LDOM is rebooted.

I'm not sure if we really want to go with ZFS for the control domain, we could just use a lesser filesystem and give more RAM to apache and maybe databases?
It's awful lot of ram to use to have xfs on just 2 fairly disks, I'd want to be convinced that we're getting some real benifit from the ZFS
