We have been using OpenFiler for serveral years now. We currently have two OpenFiler SANs providing datastores to 13 frontend ESXi 3.5 for VM's. It's performance is great! We actually started with it to use iSCSI, but in the past 6 months we have reconfigured the SAN's and now use NFS only. We also have Zimbra dedicated on one of the frontend servers, but its datastore is also on one of the SAN's. Works great! The SAN outperforms any of the local disks in the frontend servers easily.
