Hi all,
I have exchanged my Dell R610 in favor of a Sun Fire 4170 M2 which has
32 GB RAM installed. I am running Sol11Expr on this host and I use it to
primarily serve Netatalk AFP shares. From day one, I have noticed that
the amount of free RAM decereased and along with that decrease the
overall performance of ZFS decreased as well.
Now, since I am still quite a Solaris newbie, I seem to cannot track
where the heck all the memory has gone and why ZFS performs so poorly
after an uptime of only 5 days.
I can reboot Solaris, which I did for testing, and that would bring back
the performance to reasonable levels, but otherwiese I am quite at my
witts end.
To give some numbers: the ZFS performance decreases down to 1/10th of
the initial throughput, either read or write.
Anybody having some tips up their sleeves, where I should start looking
for the missing memory?
Cheers,
budy
