Thanks, I'll try these settings.
I'll keep you posted.
Nope, it's happened again... Now I've tried to rise vm.kmem_size to
6G...
I'm really astounded at how unstable zfs is, it's causing me a lot of
problem.
Why isn't it stated in the handbook that zfs isn't up to production
yet?
As with everything related to computers, it all depends on your uses.
Sorry to semi-hijack this, but... I'm also running into frequent
"kmem_map too small" panics on 8-STABLE, such as:
panic: kmem_malloc(131072): kmem_map too small: 2023780352 total
allocated
panic: kmem_malloc(131072): kmem_map too small: 2011525120 total
allocated
panic: kmem_malloc(114688): kmem_map too small: 1849356288 total
allocated
panic: kmem_malloc(114688): kmem_map too small: 1849356288 total

allocated
panic: kmem_malloc(536576): kmem_map too small: 2022957056 total

(those are over the course of 3-4 days)
On this specific system, it has 32 GB physical memory and has
vfs.zfs.arc_max="2G" and vm.kmem_size="64G" in /boot/loader.conf. The
latter was added per earlier suggestions on this list, but appears to
be ignored as "sysctl vm.kmem_size" returns about 2 GB (2172452864)
anyway.
As Artem stated in another reply, you will need to set vm.kmem_size
slightly under 2x the physical memory. The kernel will default to 2GB
if you pass this limit. 1.5x physical memory size should be sufficient,
so try "48G" and verify that it gets set correctly on the next boot.
