Browse Source 
The vdev cache is very underutilized (hit ratio 30%-70%) and may consume
excessive memory on systems with many vdevs.

* 1<<zfs_vdev_cache_bshift byte reads by the vdev_cache (aka software
* track buffer). At most zfs_vdev_cache_size bytes will be kept in each
* vdev's vdev_cache.
*
* TODO: Note that with the current ZFS code, it turns out that the
* vdev cache is not helpful, and in some cases actually harmful. It
* is better if we disable this. Once some time has passed, we should
* actually remove this to simplify the code. For now we just disable
* it by setting the zfs_vdev_cache_size to zero. Note that Solaris 11
* has made these same changes.
