How to stop FreeNAS from using swap

[catnas]

Exactly which version would that be?

How many, doing what?

That would be the latest 11.1 (so....... 11.1-U6.3)

Jails are doing Exactly what they were doing under 9.10 without change. The details aren’t really important. I will gladly shut them down for purposes of this discussion. I am confident they aren’t a factor, especially based on prior replies in this thread.

You can debug the memory usage by process with top. The following thread shows some values a few of us used to tune out swap in previous versions (9.10.x and 11.x.x). I'm still using them on 11.1-U6.3.

Freenas 11.2 Release no longer show any issues with the swap.
Running 11.2 it on 3 systems with various hardware and various RAM amount is solid. Replication would cause swap to go sky-high and is no longer happening.
