This morning, I found the arc_reclaim_thread running hot on my laptop running 12.0-ALPHA5 r338572.

zfs_arc_meta_strategy is still the default of 1.

I sampled the thread's stacks with

for N in `jot 1000`; do procstat -kk 100101; done | grep 100101

and put the results here:

I'm happy to help debug this.  Just let me know what you need.

The thread eventually returned to normal, and I've rebooted the system since then, so I no longer have any state. The thread started running hot at 03:00, so maybe the daily periodic run triggered it. I have to work now, but I'll try running the periodic stuff manually when I have time.
