This isn't specifically related to BSD, but I guess all Unix-like OSes. I remembered noticing that FreeNAS would only use a max of 22 GB out of my 32 GB worth of RAM, I remember seeing that the minimum recommended RAM was 8 GB and maybe there was some specific tuning in FreeNAS to make it this way. When I switched to Linux, I still have those same 8 GB free even though I told my ARC to use all available RAM, even after the server has been on for two weeks. Is this something related to ZFS were it automatically allocates 8 GB for it to use no matter what?
According to the ArcStat.sh script I currently have a 14 GB ARC and 22 GB out of my total 32 GB are used, which means 5 GB are used by my VMs and 2 GB are used by various other things.
