Is the above "4%" wrong, or am I wrong?

Suppose 200bytes to 400bytes, per 128Kbyte block ... 
200/131072 = 0.0015 = 0.15%
400/131072 = 0.003 = 0.3%
which would mean for 100G unique data = 153M to 312M ram.

Around 3G ram for 1Tb unique data, assuming default 128K block

Next question:

Correct me if I'm wrong, if you have a lot of duplicated data, then dedup
increases the probability of arc/ram cache hit.  So dedup allows you to
stretch your disk, and also stretch your ram cache.  Which also benefits
performance.
