+Percent of pagecache to reclaim arc to
+
+This tunable allows ZFS arc to play more nicely with the kernel's LRU
+pagecache. It can guarantee that the arc size won't collapse under scanning
+pressure on the pagecache, yet still allows arc to be reclaimed down to
+zfs_arc_min if necessary. This value is specified as percent of pagecache
+size (as measured by NR_FILE_PAGES) where that percent may exceed 100. This
+only operates during memory pressure/reclaim.
