Default Sassafras for smoking

Can anyone recommend (or not) using sassafras as a wood for smoking?
It seems to have a sweet smoke flavor when burned in a
woodstove/fireplace.

I've used a *LOT* of it with no ill effects.

Doesn't seem to add as much flavor as you'd think from it's aroma, but it
does smell wonderful when burning.

I've used it both direct and indirect and it's pretty disappointing for
direct cooking as it doesn't make coals worth a shit. Just kinda burns to
ash. (ironically, ash makes wonderful coals. G)
