> correct ratio of arc to l2arc?

from http://blogs.sun.com/brendan/entry/l2arc_screenshots

"It costs some DRAM to reference the L2ARC, at a rate proportional to record 
size.
For example, it currently takes about 15 Gbytes of DRAM to reference 600 Gbytes 
of
L2ARC - at an 8 Kbyte ZFS record size. If you use a 16 Kbyte record size, that 
cost
would be halve - 7.5 Gbytes. This means you shouldn't, for example, configure a
system with only 8 Gbytes of DRAM, 600 Gbytes of L2ARC, and an 8 Kbyte record 
size -
if you did, the L2ARC would never fully populate."
