Ben, This looks good !
I Couple of points ; - You might want show whether ARC is throttled. (Although this is not available as a kstat). I think it is good indication of how stressed is the box. - I am not sure if 'anon_hits' make too much sense. : -- From arc.c -- * Anonymous buffers are buffers that are not associated with * a DVA. These are buffers that hold dirty block copies * before they are written to stable storage. By definition, * they are "ref'd" and are considered part of arc_mru * that cannot be freed. Generally, they will aquire a DVA * as they are written and migrate onto the arc_mru list. */ -- snip -- I agree with you that we would need a little better explaination about the demand* parameters. Let me try and understand that a little better. Thanks and regards, Sanjeev.
