Currently about a day since other people rebooted the server in panic.

www:~> sysctl kstat.zfs.misc.arcstats.evict_skip
kstat.zfs.misc.arcstats.evict_skip: 4442021
www:~> sysctl kstat.zfs.misc.arcstats.evict_skip
kstat.zfs.misc.arcstats.evict_skip: 4442410

It increases (like the two values I've given) about every 5 seconds,
which would mean approx. 70 per second.

Almost none.

{arc_reclaim_thre}
   36 root       -8    -     0K    80K l2arc_  0   0:01  0.00%
