This is actually hitting two different issues from the two bugs: - 191510 is about "ARC isn't greedy enough" on huge-memory machines, and from the osreldate that bug was filed on 9.2, so presumably is applicable. - 187594 is about "ARC is too greedy" (probably mostly on not-so-huge machines) and starves/drives the rest of the system into swap. That I believe came about as a result of some unrelated change in the 10.x stream that upset the previous balance between ARC and the rest of the VM, so isn't a problem on 9.x. -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | fulle...@over-yonder.net Systems/Network Administrator | http://www.over-yonder.net/~fullermd/ On the Internet, nobody can hear you scream. _______________________________________________ svn-src-head@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-head To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-head-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
