 do a  zfs list -t all 
 
 you will see all snapshots and zvols then as well

Uups, sorry for asking.
Everything o.k. after zfs destroy big/b...@backup  :-(

I hope the info on arc_max will stay useful.

 There was a change between zfs v7 and v13. IN 7 when you did a zfs list it
 would show snapshots, after 13 it didnt unless you supplied the switch. It
 still catches me out as we have a right mix of zfs version at work, so dont
 feel to bad 8)

 Nasty surprise, doesn't that break POLA ? :)
 I assume that was Sun's change, not something specific to FreeBSD...

This however is better for my routined fingers.
