Hello,
I have a ~18TB pool of 9x 3TB drives in RaidZ2. My Freenas system currently has 12GB of RAM.
This is a file server, highest workload it will experience is me playing a 1080p video.
Thought I would have enough RAM but today I updated to Freenas 11.3 and was poking around the new UI. Noticed my RAM usage is at like 95%
Total Memory Installed: 11.7 GiB
Free: 0.3 GiB
ZFS Cache: 9.8 GiB
Services: 0.8 GiB.
I read around the internet that the cache will fill the entirety of the space, so memory usage will always show high. Wondering if thats true?
Swap Utilization is pegged at 0 while transferring a large batch of files.
I know my rig is made of consumer hardware, forgive my peasantdom! Its just basically an old PC i stuck a bunch of drives in.
Specs below:
Freenas 11.3
CPU: AMD FX-6300 3.5Ghz 6-core
Mobo: Asus Sabertooth 990FX
RAM: 12GB DDR3
Video Card (Just so i have a monitor output): Geforce GT 710 1GB
