This is my related report -
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=229764

While max_wired is 30% ram, arc_max should not be more than 70% of ram.

ARC memory is wired, there is also another pool of wired memory and the
two values do not appear to be combined in any checking, which allows
more than all physical ram to be wired.

Wired ram cannot be swapped, when all physical ram is wired we get out
of swap errors when there is swap space available.
