Don't forget about the HAMMER file system which Matthew Dillon over at
DragonFly BSD is busy working on.  It's not 100% finished but hopefully
soon and it should be ported to FreeBSD. It  looks to be pretty good
(Exabytes of space?!!!?)

We have setup hadoop on FreeBSD, bit of mission cause of java and I'm
not sure about performance but it can be done :)
