Hi.

Today I had a look at the zpool of a server (FreeBSD 10.2, GENERIC
kernel, 100d uptime, 96GB RAM) I recently installed.

The pool has eight SAS drives in a raid 10 setup (concatenated mirror
pairs) and uses a cache and a mirrored log.

The log and cache both are on a pair of Intel SSDs.

# gpart show -l da9
=3D>       34  195371501  da9  GPT  (93G)
         34          6       - free -  (3.0K)
         40   16777216    1  log-BTTV5234003K100FGN  (8.0G)
   16777256  178594272    2  cache-BTTV5234003K100FGN  (85G)
  195371528          7       - free -  (3.5K)


Is 85% fragmentation of the log device something to worry about?

Why does zpool list show so unrealistic values for FREE and CAP?
Is this normal?

Atached: Some output of zpool list.

Regards,
Kai.
