You may want to make sure that vm.kmem_size is set to a value much larger than vfs.zfs.arc_max. Default value may be too small to allow such a large ARC. On a side note, I'm not sure that ZFS is a good match for system with only 1G of RAM. By trial and error on my box with 8G or memory I've figured out that I need to set arc_max ~1G below physical memory size to avoid lockups under load. YMMV. --Artem On Wed, Jan 20, 2010 at 2:14 AM, Alexander Leidinger <alexan...@leidinger.net> wrote: > Quoting jhell <jh...@dataix.net> (from Tue, 19 Jan 2010 09:45:58 -0500): > >> On 1/19/2010 5:16 AM, Sherin George wrote: >>> >>> Thanks Ivan :) >>> >>> I found It. add following in /boot/loader.conf >>> >>> =================== >>> vfs.zfs.arc_max="10244M" >>> =================== > >> I just thought I would give a shout at this for stable/7 as of last >> week.
