while that's true, its not Henrik's main discovery. Henrik points
out that 1/4 of the arc is used for metadata, and sometime
that's not enough..
if
echo "::arc" | mdb -k | egrep ^size
isn't reaching
echo "::arc" | mdb -k | egrep "^c "
and you are maxing out your metadata space, check:
echo "::arc" | mdb -k | grep meta_
one can set the metadata space (1G in this case) with:
echo "arc_meta_limit/Z 0x4000000" | mdb -kw
So while Henrik's FS had some fragmentation, 1/4 of c_max wasn't
enough metadata arc space for number of files in /var/pkg/download
good find Henrik!
