After one week under load I think we figure out the cause: it's L2ARC. Here's the top's header for 7d17h of the runtime: last pid: 46409; load averages: 0.37, 0.62, 0.70 up 7+17:14:01 07:24:10 173 processes: 1 running, 171 sleeping, 1 zombie CPU: 2.0% user, 0.0% nice, 3.5% system, 0.4% interrupt, 94.2% idle Mem: 8714M Active, 14G Inact, 96G Wired, 1929M Cache, 3309M Buf, 3542M Free ARC: 85G Total, 2558M MFU, 77G MRU, 28M Anon, 1446M Header, 4802M Other ARC related tunables: vm.kmem_size="110G" vfs.zfs.arc_max="90G" vfs.zfs.arc_min="42G" For more than 7 days of hard runtime the picture clearly shows: Wired minus ARC = 11..12Gb, ARC grow and shrinks in 80-87Gb range and the system runs just fine. So what shall we do with L2ARC leakage ? Received on Tue Jan 14 2014 - 04:27:59 UTC
