Actually, the calculation is that it needs a GB of RAM for every TB of
managed data.

How do you reckon this? Ie, what's the basic assumption(s) for the statement?
Parity calculations for stripes or what? I don't follow.

I can't say I've ever heard any such like, so please do enlighten me!



It used to be written in the solarisinternals.com wiki - but I can't seem to find it anymore.

ZFS is a moving target, in some ways, so the requirements may have changed or are no longer that simple.

But it made sense in the early days, when SUN's thumper (X4500, 2*DC Opteron, 48 disks, 16 GB RAM) more or less fit the requirements perfectly.


cheers,
Rainer
