than 2GB of RAM. This was because our physmem is long and 'physmem*PAGESIZE'
can be negative for more than 2GB of memory.
Reported by: Andrey V. Elsukov <bu7cher@yandex.ru>
It is not yet tested by Andrey, so there can be other problems, but this
was definiately a bug, so I'm committing a fix now.
- Allow to shrink ARC down to 16MB (instead of 64MB).
- Set arc_max to 1/2 of kmem_map by default.
- Start freeing things earlier when low memory situation is detected.
- Serialize execution of arc_lowmem().
I decided to setup minimum ZFS memory requirements to 512MB of RAM and 256MB of
kmem_map size. If there is less RAM or kmem_map, a warning will be printed.
World is cruel, be no better. In other words: modern file system requires
modern hardware:)
From ZFS administration guide:
"Currently the minimum amount of memory recommended to install a Solaris
system is 512 Mbytes. However, for good ZFS performance, at least one
Gbyte or more of memory is recommended."
ZFS file system was ported from OpenSolaris operating system. The code in under
CDDL license.
I'd like to thank all SUN developers that created this great piece of software.
