I did some searching on the forums, handbook, and elsewhere and didn't find anything, so I'm hoping to get yall's your input.

I've got a laptop with an Core i3 Ivy Bridge, 4 GB RAM, and 128 GB SSD. For a FreeBSD 10.1 installation, would UFS+Journaling or ZFS be better for such a small volume?
 
UFS with soft updates but without journaling. All you get from journaling is a potentially faster boot up after a crash but it won't protect your data any better. ZFS is an overkill for such use in my opinion.
