Systems are low-memory (2GB), but have also seen this behaviour on high (256GB) memory systems all without swap. 10.0-RELEASE seems to NOT be affected. How-to-repeat: Run a system without swap and a ZFS filesystem (eg: 1TB to 2TB used). Appears to be triggered when deleting (either through snapshots, or via regular files) a large of amount data (hundreds of GB) (even with few files). Wired memory skyrockets and is never reclaimed until hitting vm.v_free_min, after which the kernel randomly kills processes to stay up. Once this has been done, sometimes the wired memory is reclaimed, sometimes not. Exactly the same config on 10.0-RELEASE is not affected. Have tried setting: vfs.zfs.arc_max=128M (and lower) vfs.zfs.zio.use_uma=0 (no effect) increasing v_free_min and v_free_target = system just kills processes faster -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
