Hello All,
Awhile back (Feb '07) when we noticed ZFS was hogging all the memory
on the system, y'all were kind enough to help us use the arc_max
tunable to attempt to limit that usage to a hard value. Unfortunately,
at the time a sticky problem was that the hard limit did not include
DNLC entries

3.0.x and before are GPLv2. 3.2.0 and later are GPLv3.

Hi,
I converted my laptop to use ZFS root, loosely following the instructions:
http://opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/boot/zfsboot-manual/
In my case I added seperate filesystems under rootfs for /usr, /var, /opt, and
/export, which slightly complicates things (they have to be added to vfstab

This was added recently because ZFS can take a while to mount large
configs. Consoles would appear to freeze after the

Hi all,
I recently started seeing zfs chattiness at boot time: "reading zfs config"
and something like "mounting zfs filesystems (n/n)".
