Questions about ZFS

Hello

After having some serious issues with data corruption on ext3 and 4 over time, I have decided to start using ZFS on the disk. After what I have read, ZFS is the superb filesystem for avoiding data corruption, as far as I have understood zfs-fuse (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=8003) to use zfs with linux, or is there any better option?

And Ive heard that zfs requires alot of the machine? And is there any other alternatives?

he means until it's stable in the kernel. which could take a loong while I think. (personal guess:  2 years or so)
