Good Morning,
After my first week of using Scale, I saw different behavior with zfs cache and memory usage between core and scale and hope someone can explain the differences.
First of all in Core the Dashboard was showing 31.9GiB total available Memory, in Scale it's only 31.3Gib. I guess that those missing 600MiB are directly allocated as System Memory and therefore are not "available" for general use - please correct me if i'm wrong.
Second is the zfs cache: In Core my cache size was roughly around ~20GiB with ~10Gib for sercvices and ~1GiB free.
In Scale i can copy files as big as 2TB to the array without the zfs cache going over 14.7GiB, services is around 5.5GiB to 6.1GiB, rest of the memory sits there unused.
I thought zfs grabs all the memory it can get so i'm wondering if this behavior is a bug.
Hope you have a nice weekend,
Lars
