I'm new to opensolaris, and i'm really loving it so far.

naturally, i'd like to try running XEN on my box.  This box is mainly a NAS, 
but i can't get rtorrent installed, so i'm hoping XEN will be the answer.  I'm 
reading some of the documentation of it and it's saying i need to lower my arc, 
i'm wondering how much?

I only plan on running a single domU and i only plan on running a small 
webserver in that with rtorrent.

I have an intel q9550 cpu with VT-d enabled, and 8 gb of ddr2 ECC ram

I don't see any guidelines for how much to limit arc, just this:
set zfs:zfs_arc_max = 0x10000000


That seems quite low.....does it really need to be this low?
