Most of http://wiki.freebsd.org/ZFSTuningGuide
is for i386 and amd64.
I'm using zfs on ia64 r238540.
Not sure how much of the advice given apply in my case.

I have:

# grep ZFS /var/run/dmesg.boot
ZFS filesystem version: 5
ZFS storage pool version: features support (5000)
# zpool upgrade -v |tail
 23  Slim ZIL
 24  System attributes
 25  Improved scrub stats
 26  Improved snapshot deletion performance
 27  Improved snapshot creation performance
 28  Multiple vdev replacements

For more information on a particular version, including supported releases,
see the ZFS Administration Guide.

# zpool list

# zpool status

Do the vm.kmem tunables look reasonable?

Thanks
