By default maximal number of objects in slab can't exceed (16*2 - 1) and slab size can't exceed 32M. Today's high end servers having couple hundreds of RAM available for ARC may run into a trouble with virtual memory because of the restriction mentioned above. Problem: Reasons for very high number of virtual memory allocations: * Real slab size very small relative to the size of the entire RAM * Slabs allocated on virtual memory and fill entire ARC The result is very high number of allocated virtual memory ranges (hundreds of ranges). When virtual memory subsystem manages high number of ranges its performance become so poor that it freezes from time to time. Solution: Number of objects per slab should be increased taking into account maximal slab size which can also be increased if needed.
