Hello everyone,
A few months ago, we transfered our all static contents to new freenas system which build on supermicro 6048.
Our specs are;
- Supermicro X10DRL-i
- Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630L v3 @ 1.80GHz
- DDR4 ECC 53207MB (cause we virtualized, actually 64gb)
- 10GbaseT network
- LSI3008 HBA
- 20x 8TB Seagate Archive HDD !!!BEWARE!!! SMR sucks! (we used only for backups)
- 4x 12TB WD Gold (serving static contents like jpeg, png, gif etc.)
+ 4 more 12TB drives on the way to expand the pool.
And our ZFS reports are;
When I read the charts, everything seems to be cached from ARC. And our hit ratio populated due Frequently Used pattern.
I think we don't need more memory capacity or any L2ARC under these loads, do I?
Our arc summary looks like that by the way;
