It's not thirst, it's efficient usage. You weren't using it for something else, were you? If you were planning on using it later, well -- you can tell zfs at boot time to never user more than X MB/GB in the ARC. /etc/modprobe.d/zfs.conf # reserve this much options zfs zfs_arc_min=536870912 # don't grow past this, even if it looks ok options zfs zfs_arc_max=8589934592 -dsr- _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.blu.org http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
