I was able to complete a ZFS replication by manually intervening each
time "zfs recv" blocked on "kmem arena": running the program at the end

I've tried HEAD/CURRENT at r272749
On 10-STABLE through r273

Removing kern.maxfiles from loader.conf still hangs in "kmem arena".
I tried using a memstick image of -CURRENT made from the release/
process and this also hangs in "kmem arena"
An uninvolved server of mine hung Friday night in state"kmem arena"
during periodic's "zpool history". After a reboot

Hangs usually seem to hapeen 1TB to 3TB in, but last night one run hung
after only 4.35MB.
