Please read carefully my first message. No any tuning (configs
posted), and problem is not that ZFS uses big amount of memory. I'm
experiencing exactly one problem - Wired mem is significantly larger
than ARC.
E.g. if my ARC size is 2048M, I'm expecting that Wired will not
consume more than ARC+~150M.
