Description
The default settings for ARC in FreeBSD are appropriate to optimise disk access for most computer systems.
For a real time system such as pfsense which is not typically disk speed limited, the default settings and progressive wired memory use by ARC is not optimal for most pfsense installations.
As zfs is now the default file system for pfsense, expecting most users to debug their high memory use and explicitly code a solution is less than ideal.
This could be done by
- Adding an entry in System -> Advanced -> System Tunables
- Adding a section near "Ram Disk" in System -> Advanced -> Miscellaneous
Updated by Jim Pingle almost 2 years ago
- Subject changed from zfs settings GUI interface to GUI setting/tunable for ZFS ARC Maximum size
Let's keep this issue specific to one request and not over-generalize it.
