ZFS has a nifty feature that it ALWAYS consumes almost ALL remaining free memory.
But… it will reduce memory consumption if anything else needs it. Are you sure that your VM’s run on SWAP memory? How much RAM do you have? how big is your zonepool? How many HD’s do you use in your zonepool?

Can someone tell me the proper way to limit the amount of memory available to the ZFS ARC? When I spin up new VMs now, the pretty much only use swap as all available memory is already tied up in the ARC.
