A year ago I set up Ubuntu server with 3 ZFS pools on my server, normally I don't make copies of very large files but today I was making a copy of a ~30GB directory and I saw in rsync that the transfer doesn't exceed 3mb/s (cp is also very slow).

What is the best file system that "just works"? I'm thinking of migrating everything to ext4

EDIT: I really like the automatic pool recovery feature in ZFS, has saved me from 1 hard drive failure so far

Most filesystems should "just work" these days.

Why are you blaming the filesystem here when you haven't ruled out other issues yet? If you have a drive failing a new FS won't help. Check out "smartctl" to see if it reports errors in your drives.
