i ran this oneliner sequence. it was a (poor) attempt to force push ram empty.
it mostly got empty. but. i think i have a problem here. do you also see
problem here? i have 532.07 mb of kernel memory going somewhere. i won't be
looking if it doesn't get slower or "overflow" in rare cases. is that a zfs
write cache? note that this is on 13.5-RELEASE-p3, currently no other releases,
stables or currents where i can perform same tests as a comparison, nor any
more powerful systems. i'm reading here that zfs can't give ram back if it's
middle of "something". unsure what to think
