Public bug reported:

In the past I could limit the size of L1ARC by specifying "options zfs
zfs_arc_max=3221225472" in /etc/modprobe.d/zfs.conf. I tried even to
fill /sys/module/zfs/parameters/zfs_arc_max directly after login, but
none of those methods limits the size of L1ARC. It worked nicely in zfs
0.7.x.

Nowadays I use a nvme drive with 3400 MB/s read throughput and I see not
much difference between e.g booting the system from nvme and rebooting
the system from L1ARC. Having a 96-99% hit rate for the L1ARC, I like to
free up some memory, thus avoiding some delay of freeing memory from
L1ARC while loading a VM.
