zfs_ram
shallowengineer.calc/calc · Verify this server
Calculate recommended RAM and ARC sizing for a ZFS storage pool based on workload type, pool size, deduplication status, and L2ARC cache size. Computes minimum and recommended RAM in gigabytes, ARC target size, and dedup table overhead. Accounts for workload-specific IO patterns: NAS (sequential, 1GB/TB), database (random, 2GB/TB), virtualization (mixed, 1.5GB/TB). Deduplication adds approximately 5GB per TB for the DDT. L2ARC index requires 1GB RAM per 10GB of L2ARC. Essential for TrueNAS, FreeNAS, and custom ZFS server builds.
