I think that the OpenIndiana discussion is spot on, and I am always excited to see this discussion come back to a head.

I believe I have reposted this previously, but in case you haven't seen it, here is one of the earliest post from Erik Trimble @ Sun announcing that OpenSolaris/Indiana, then current at the time, had been successfully ported to ARM.

Further study into this shows that there was also a special version of ZFS, termed CZFS, that was optimized to function in low resource environments.

Illumos/OpenIndiana should only concern itself with 64-bit ARM, which does not need to function in low resource environments. Supporting 64-bit ARM is a much easier task than supporting 32-bit ARM, which has a plethora of variations.
