Wherever possible, choose multiple mirrored vdev configuration (raid10) rather than raidz, as VMs in general tend to be more interested in IOPS rather than bandwidth (streaming) performance. If you decide to keep raidz1, then try adding more disks onto it. If you use zvols for the VMs, try increasing volblocksize from 8k which is the default, to 16k or 32k. Personally, I'd add one more disk into the mix and go for 2 vdev mirrored setup (raid10) and keep the zfs defaults.
