AFAIR Pawel explained that he intends to backport it to
RELENG7, but it will take some time because it is a huge
amount of code.  Also, it depends on other merges from
-current by other people that are not directly ZFS-related.
Therefore the time frame is currently unknown.

On the other hand, 8-current seems to run quite stable at
the moment; I have it running on a workstation for several
weeks without problems.  So if you're eager to try ZFS 13,
you might consider upgrading to -current.  Also note that
there are improvements in -current (by Alan Cox) that fix
issues related to kmem in 64bit mode (FreeBSD/amd64).  ZFS
will very much benefit from those improvements; you don't
have to tune kmem anymore in order to avoid panics.

Best regards
   Oliver
