zpool iostat value bigger than fsstat

Dear ZFS experts ..
We have 'zpool iostat' and 'fsstat' commands running in our Oracle Database 11G server. We are monitoring the I/O load rite now.

What I found interesting is "zpool iostat" shows much more READ IOPS than "fsstat". What does it mean ? Is it an indication of performance degradation ? That ZFS requires a lot more I/O reading from disks for its internal operation rather than serving the application (Oracle Database) ?

p004 is one of our ZFS filesystem that stores Oracle datafiles.

Output from "zpool iostat 1" :
               capacity     operations    bandwidth
pool        alloc   free   read  write   read  write
p004        2.95T  2.49T  4.25K     35   537M  4.48M

Howdy, Stranger!
